'That's all we ask' - Trent Alexander-Arnold sends message to two 'dream' Liverpool signings

Jurgen Klopp highlighted Brighton & Hove Albion midfielder Mac Allister as a target before the conclusion of the season as his £35m release clause was triggered at the beginning of June.

A month later, the RB Leipzig star and Hungary captain, Szoboszlai, was added to the squad after becoming the fourth most expensive Reds arrival

"Top players, exciting for the club, exciting for the team,"

"It is always exciting when we sign new players to see how they come and how they adapt and what they're like."

"[I'm] sure they already know, you can see from the outside, we're a welcoming team, a good dressing room, just come in, do your work and get results - that's all we ask.

"We ask for players to buy in to what we do, buy into the plan and be willing to work hard and sacrifice for the team.

I'm sure the lads will do that, they're technically excellent players who can receive the ball and play with the ball. For players like me who enjoy passing the ball, they're dream players."

Trent added:

"I think as a club it's necessary to be honest. You know, we do respect every competition we play in but if you'd asked us this time last year, would you want to finish fifth, we'd have all said no and same again now,"

"Would we want to finish fifth next season? No. We want to be winning the league, we want to be challenging and being in title races and in Champions League football so to not be in that next season is disappointing.

"We know how to win the league, we know how to challenge City and go toe to toe with them and you need to be near perfect throughout the season so for us that's where our heads are at."
