# Klopp Praises Szoboszlai’s Quality and Potential
Jurgen Klopp has seen Szoboszlai first hand and liked what he saw, but also knows there is a lot more potential to fulfil in his new player. Klopp said: ‘We already have a little knowledge of Dominik as an opponent because we had a couple of really tough games against Red Bull Salzburg when he was a player there and I think everyone who saw those fixtures will have realised that even at that stage he was a really interesting prospect.’
Klopp went on to praise Szoboszlai’s football education, saying: ‘From the clubs he has been at, the leagues he has played in and the family he is part of, it is very clear that he has already had an outstanding football education, so our responsibility now is to continue this education with him as part of the Liverpool family.’
# Szoboszlai’s Career So Far
Szoboszlai has been making waves since his teenage years, firstly with RB Salzburg before moving to the Bundesliga club. He has already captained his country and taken on the iconic number 8 shirt at Liverpool.
The Hungarian midfielder has been praised for his technical ability, vision and passing range. His ability to pick out a pass from deep positions has been compared to that of Barcelona legend Xavi Hernandez.
# What Does Szoboszlai Bring To Liverpool?
Szoboszlai’s arrival at Anfield brings a great deal of excitement to the club. His technical ability and vision should fit in perfectly with Klopp’s style of play. He is also capable of playing in a variety of positions, meaning he can provide cover in midfield and attack when needed.
The 22-year-old’s arrival also adds depth to the squad, which is something Klopp will be looking for as Liverpool look to challenge for trophies this season.
# Conclusion
Liverpool have made an excellent signing in Dominik Szoboszlai. The Hungarian international has already shown great potential during his time with RB Salzburg and RB Leipzig, and now he has the chance to show what he can do at Anfield.
