Dominik Szoboszlai's girlfriend Fanni Gecsek makes Liverpool change fans are loving

The girlfriend of Liverpool signing Dominik Szoboszlai has posted an adorable snap of their dog as they prepare for their move to Merseyside.

On Sunday, the Reds announced the signing of the 22-year-old Hungarian after they triggered the £60m release clause ending his stint with RB Leipzig. He became the second arrival of the summer after Jurgen Klopp struck a deal with Brighton & Hove Albion midfielder Alexis Mac Allister.

The midfield has become an important area for improvement at Anfield ahead of the 2023/24 Premier League campaign following a dismal season as they salvaged Europa League qualification. There were three departures in the engine room as James Milner, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Naby Keita left as free agents at the end of their contracts.

There is still an opportunity for further reinforcements as Liverpool weigh up a move for a third midfielder. While Mac Allister enjoys the final days of his holiday ahead of his new pastures, Szoboszlai is already making changes to suit Liverpool which has been displayed in a post by his girlfriend, Fanni Gecsek.

On Instagram, Gecsek posted a story to her account of their dog wearing a Liverpool-branded harness, which has already gone down well with Reds fans

The Maltipoo, named Milo, looked in an excited, jovial mood as he posed wearing the red accessory with dog paws, footballs and 'YNWA' printed.

Gecsek, 21, was born in Hungary and used to compete as a tennis player in ITF tournaments, from 2017 to 2019. She is now a model and influencer, and is currently studying at the International Business School in Budapest.

Szoboszlai became the fourth most expensive Liverpool signing ever after Virgil van Dijk, Allison and Darwin Nunez. The Hungary skipper took the number eight following the departure of Keita as he follows in the footsteps of Steven Gerrard.

The 22-year-old revealed that he has spoken to Manchester City star Erling Haaland ahead of his move to the Premier League. He told the Hungarian-based Nemzeti Sport. "So much so that Erling Haaland has also advised on finding real estate, and it could very well be that we become neighbours.

"I learned from him that several players live halfway between Manchester and Liverpool in a quiet area where privacy can be preserved, and on Monday I will see what he was talking about, I am very curious.

"And of course, putting our friendship aside during the Liverpool-Manchester City matches, it will surely be a fantastic experience to play against each other."
