Dominik Szoboszlai: From Hungary to Liverpool
===========================================
Dominik Szoboszlai has taken the “next step” in his career, moving from RB Leipzig to Liverpool after seven years in the Red Bull system. The Hungarian midfielder has had a successful few years with Leipzig, scoring 20 goals and providing 22 assists in 91 games.
Szoboszlai’s Journey Through Red Bull
————————————-
Szoboszlai first left his native Hungary in 2016, swapping MTK Budapest for FC Liefering, which is part of the Red Bull GmbH group. Two years at the feeder club saw him moved to Salzburg and then after three more years on to Leipzig, having already established himself as one to watch.
Leipzig’s Reaction to Szoboszlai’s Departure
——————————————-
Szoboszlai’s exit may have been half-expected, but was not part of Leipzig’s plan as they also parted ways with Christopher Nkunku this summer. They have now lost their two most consistent sources of goals in one summer, with Timo Werner now the fulcrum of a new-look attack which includes Liverpool loanee Fabio Carvalho. Sporting director Max Eberl said: “Of course, we would have liked to go into the new season and coming years with Dominik. He has decided, however, to make the move to England and Liverpool, a top team in Europe. This is another testament to us as a club and the work that has been done here to take young players to the next level.”
Szoboszlai’s Farewell Message
—————————–
Szoboszlai said goodbye to Leipzig on their official website: “It has been an intense and above all successful few years at RB Leipzig. I have met lots of people on and off the pitch who have really helped me in my development. I matured in Leipzig and have been able to learn a lot, so I have a lot to thank the club for. When I came to Leipzig in 2021, it was a difficult period for me as I couldn’t help the team as I wanted due to the injury. But I was confident I would bounce back and perform. Thank you to the team, everyone at the club and especially our fans. We have achieved so much in the past two years. These experiences and successes stay with you and I am very proud of having been a part of this team and a part of this special history. I am starting a new chapter at Liverpool and it is a great opportunity for me in England to make the next step.”
