‘It would certainly be a special experience’ – RB Leipzig ’13 asissts’ star express interest to play for Liverpool

Dominik Szoboszlai, who is wanted by Liverpool, wants to play for Jurgen Klopp.

Dominik Szoboszlai of RB Leipzig, a transfer target of Liverpool, expressed his desire to play for the Reds boss Jurgen Klopp, adding gasoline to the already blazing flames of transfer rumors.

Szoboszlai discussed the possibility of working with Klopp in an interview with Index conducted by Liverpool ECHO, along with other renowned coaches like Pep Guardiola and Jose Mourinho. He said as follows:

“Working for Klopp would undoubtedly be a unique experience. Like it would be under Jose Mourinho at Roma or Pep Guardiola at Manchester City.

What they might be able to extract from me is unknown. However, only a small number of football players receive all of these opportunities.

The best only. It would be wonderful to work with any of them one day and I think I can get there.”

In contrast to a number of other Liverpool targets, the attacking midfielder for RB Leipzig is very technically proficient, but he prefers to play as a 10 or on the wings rather than in deeper roles.

Szoboszlai’s admiration for Klopp provides Liverpool fans, who have been eagerly awaiting potential new arrivals to bolster the squad, with some cause for optimism. It is exciting to think about Szoboszlai bringing his technical prowess, vision, and goal-scoring ability to Anfield.

To the Reds, Szoboszlai?

This season, he has made 45 appearances in all competitions and has nine goals and another 13 assists to his credit. Liverpool supporters will closely monitor any developments involving the gifted midfielder as the summer transfer window gets closer.

He shares most of Alexis Mac Allister’s traits, which raises the question of whether the Reds really need two players who are so similar.

Although there is no disputing his quality, Liverpool would want a box-to-box midfielder to counteract the offensive brilliance if the Mac Allister trade goes through.

Although the players’ on-the-ball characteristics are comparable, Mac Allister offers a slight edge defensively over Szoboszlai, according to statistics provided by whoscored.com. The Reds will need to evaluate this difference to determine which player is the greatest fit for the team.

Fans will be anxiously awaiting more information on the Hungarian midfielder’s future as the summer transfer season offers intrigue and excitement. His current contract is valid through 2026 (Transfermarkt).
