LIVERPOOL (AFP) – Liverpool are set to further bolster their midfield with the signing of Hungarian international Dominik Szoboszlai from RB Leipzig, according to reports on Saturday.

The BBC and Sky Sports reported that the English giants have told Leipzig they will trigger the 22-year-old’s EUR70 million (GBP60 million, USD76 million) release clause.

Szoboszlai scored 20 goals in 91 games for Leipzig since joining the German side from RB Salzburg in January 2021. He has been pictured arriving in the United Kingdom to undergo his medical with Liverpool.

Szoboszlai would become Liverpool’s second signing of the transfer window after Argentine World Cup winner Alexis Mac Allister’s arrival from Brighton for GBP35 million.
