da stake casino: Liverpool’s January signing Takumi Minamino has revealed the first words that Jurgen Klopp said to him in training, per Sky Sports News.
What’s the word?
da prosport bet: The Reds secured the signing of the winger from RB Salzburg at the beginning of the transfer window, having agreed a deal in December.
Klopp’s side paid his £7.25m release clause and heading into this weekend, he’d already played three times for the club, in the Premier League against Wolves and the FA Cup against Everton and Shrewsbury Town.
And Minamino says that the German manager instantly put him at ease upon his arrival on Merseyside.
He said: “I cannot forget his words – two or three days after joining the club, he said I could play in any way I wanted to play and he said just enjoy playing in any way you want to play.
“So I was really happy as a player that he said that. In the locker room, he is very good at motivating players, so I want to respond to his motivation even in the practice sessions and in the actual games.”
A shrewd addition
This is an excellent insight into Liverpool’s recruitment.
Klopp clearly believes that Minamino can make an instant impact without adapting too much.
The Reds, then, have done well to secure a player who can slot straight in, with the 25-year-old able to play on the right, left and through the middle.
