By signing a five-year contract on Sunday, Szobozslai completed his £60 million transfer from RB Leipzig.
After completing his transfer to Liverpool on Sunday, Dominik Szoboszlai admitted he had contacted Manchester City striker Erling Haaland for advice.
In addition, the £60 million acquisition has provided a detailed account of his hectic off-the-field commitments before reporting to the AXA Training Center on July 11 to begin preseason training with his new team.
After passing a medical examination at the Reds’ Kirkby base on Sunday, Szobozslai formally agreed to a five-year contract, becoming the club’s second summer signing.
After meeting with the player’s representatives at the start of last week, Liverpool acted quickly to close the deal with RB Leipzig. The 22-year-old’s £60 million release clause was activated by the Reds on Friday, and he was flown into Merseyside on Saturday afternoon.
During their time together with Red Bull Salzburg and the new No. 1, Szoboszlai and City striker Haaland formed a close friendship. After speaking with the Norway forward, 8 believes it is possible that they could even end up being neighbors in the north west.
Szoboszlai stated to the Nemzeti Sport newspaper in Hungary, “We’ve talked. “Erling Haaland has offered real estate advice as well, and it’s possible that we’ll end up living next to each other.
He told me that several players reside in a quiet neighborhood where privacy can be maintained halfway between Manchester and Liverpool. I’m very curious, so on Monday, I’ll find out what he was referring to.
And of course, playing against each other will be a fantastic experience, friendship aside during the Liverpool-Manchester City games. “.
Szoboszlai added: “I’ve spoken to him before and he knows what our relationship is like.” Szoboszlai also consulted former Liverpool goalkeeper Peter Gulacsi, who he had a teammate with at Leipzig. When I first arrived in Leipzig, he was already there. As soon as I joined the team as a player, I knew I could rely on his support.
He was a very good teammate of mine, and I hope he recovered from his injury in time for Liverpool’s Champions League match against RB Leipzig so he can try to stop my free-kick!
“On Monday, I have some training to complete, paperwork to complete, and then I’ll look at some potential homes where I’d like to live. Then I have to travel to Leipzig, pack up my belongings, say goodbye to my old team, and express my gratitude to everyone for their love, support, and encouragement before traveling to Budapest. However, I will return to Liverpool no later than the 10th because I will begin training for my new team on the 11th. “.
Following the early-June addition of Alexis Mac Allister from Brighton and Hove Albion, Szoboszlai’s arrival has brought Liverpool’s spending to £95m thus far. The Hungarian says he is not looking to put too much pressure on himself just yet as he prepares for life at his new club.
I don’t want to look too far, he remarked. “I’m trying to take it step by step. I definitely need time to get used to the Premier League’s rhythm, the way Liverpool plays, and Jurgen Klopp’s ideas.
“The chance to play is the most crucial factor, as it always is, and if I get that chance, I’ll want to score as many goals as I can, provide assists, and gain the support of my teammates and the crowd. I hope to earn their unwavering trust, which they constantly extend to me in Liverpool. “.

Henderson adores the “fantastic” PL center-back Liverpool could still make a move for.
This summer, Liverpool might try to sign Chelsea center-back Levi Colwill.
Colwill has been associated with the Reds since the middle of the previous campaign. The 20-year-old will not, however, be sold, according to Chelsea. And the Evening Standard has reiterated that position once again today.
Colwill’s most likely final destination, should he decide to leave Stamford Bridge, is currently thought to be Brighton. The Standard asserts that any attempt to include Colwill in that deal will be rejected because the two clubs are scheduled to meet in the coming days to discuss Moises Caicedo.
Contrary bidders may not yet be deterred despite this steadfast and transparent stance. Two candidates who could still make an offer for the England U-21 international are Liverpool and Manchester City.
The events of the upcoming days may determine whether they do or not. Colwill is reportedly waiting to speak with new manager Mauricio Pochettino before accepting a contract offer from Chelsea, despite having one on the table.
The young defender reportedly wants assurance regarding playing time as Pochettino is scheduled to begin his job on Monday.
If everything goes as planned, he appears to agree.
If not, perhaps Liverpool will notice a chance.
Colwill is waiting for crucial discussions.
There seems to be quite the rush to secure Colwill if he does become actively available during this window.
His two seasons playing on loan have been excellent. Lewis O’Brien praised him as “fantastic” during his time at Huddersfield in 2021/22 after he displayed his talent with Brighton in the Premier League the previous season [Yorkshire Live].
Another admirer of Colwill is Jordan Henderson, who spoke highly of him while Colwill was in a recent England training camp.
However, if the youngster is looking for playing time, Liverpool is not the place for him right now. The Reds are undoubtedly looking for a left-footed center back in Colwill’s mold, but that would be a more long-term solution.
Ibrahima Konate is currently his obvious partner because Virgil van Dijk isn’t leaving just yet.
They will have to accept that if any left-sided defender does move to Anfield this summer.
We don’t see how Colwill’s concerns about joining the Reds would be allayed after hearing the specifics of his Chelsea situation. We wouldn’t mind seeing it happen, but let’s wait to get excited until after the outcome of his discussions with Poch.
