According to the youngster, playing for Liverpool is a great step in his career and he is willing to give his best to progress the club.

 

 

“I think when I stepped out on the Anfield pitch when I played Arsenal, I think it was an emotional thing for me,” he said.

“To obviously be watching the players and to be playing them with them, honestly it's a dream come true.

“To be in and around the fans as well, to hear them singing You'll Never Walk Alone when you're stepping out on the pitch, it did bring a tear to my eye. I just can't wait to give everything back to them and just to show them what I can do.”
