Dominik Szoboszlai and his lethal right foot arrived at Liverpool in the summer of 2023 as part of a midfield overhaul. <\/p>\n

The all-action player has swung the balance of many matches in the Reds\u2019 favour with his relentless work-rate and ability to score from long range. <\/p>\n

Having grown up an admirer of Steven Gerrard<\/u><\/strong> in Hungary, Szoboszlai joined the club of his icon from RB Leipzig and had no qualms about taking the iconic No.8 shirt.<\/p>\n

A strong debut campaign under Jurgen Klopp<\/u><\/strong> \u2013 which included 11 goal involvements from 45 appearances and a Carabao Cup winner\u2019s medal \u2013 was a sign of things to come.<\/p>\n

Szoboszlai improved on those numbers the following season by producing eight strikes and as many assists in 49 outings. Thirty-six of those came in the Premier League as part of Arne Slot<\/strong>\u2019s title-winning midfield.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe worked so hard the whole season to get to this point,\u201d he reflected, after the championship had been clinched with four matches to spare.<\/p>\n

\u201cEverybody has been involved somehow from the players, the staff, the fans, the city \u2013 everybody. It was a huge moment for everyone when we defeated Tottenham and could celebrate that together.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
