Blow for Liverpool as Dominik Szoboszlai set to join RB Leipzig

Liverpool and Arsenal have both suffered a huge blow, with Dominik Szoboszlai set to join RB Leipzig in the January transfer window.

That’s according to Sky Germany, who claim the RB Salzburg youngster has made up his mind on his next club.

Liverpool have been linked with Szoboszlai in recent weeks, but nothing concrete has been reported.

Arsenal have also reportedly been eyeing up the Hungarian star, but the forward is seemingly on his way to Germany to join Salzburg’s sister club.

Szoboszlai looks one of the most exciting young players in European football at the moment, scoring 25 goals and registering 33 assists in 80 appearances for Salzburg.

He also recently scored a dramatic last-gasp goal to send Hungary into Euro 2020 at the expense of Iceland, outlining his influence at international level, too.

This news is, therefore, a negative from a Liverpool perspective, with Szoboszlai someone who could have been a hugely exciting long-term addition at Anfield.

His technical ability and work-rate could have been a match made in heaven for Jurgen Klopp, but that ship looks to have sailed, for the time being at least.
