Liverpool midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai has dismissed speculation linking him with a summer move to Real Madrid, confirming his long-term commitment to the Anfield club.

The 25-year-old has been a standout performer during a challenging campaign for Arne Slot’s side.

He has contributed 12 goals and eight assists in 43 appearances across all competitions this term.

The versatile Hungarian has even showcased his adaptability by filling in at right-back to help ease ongoing injury issues.

Real Madrid speculation addressed

Rumours of a summer departure surfaced after Hungary manager Marco Rossi suggested the player harboured dreams of a switch to the Bernabeu.

Those links were amplified by revelations that Real Madrid forward Vinicius Junior regularly exchanges messages with the Anfield star.

However, the central midfielder has firmly shut down any talk of an imminent exit to the Spanish capital.

“I love being here. My family is happy, I love the club, I love the fans, I love to play for this club and that is it.”

Arriving on Merseyside in 2023, he remains under contract with the Premier League giants until June 2028.

Embracing an iconic shirt

His driving runs and spectacular long-range free-kicks have drawn inevitable comparisons to club legend Steven Gerrard.

Taking on Gerrard’s legendary number eight shirt was an easy decision following the departure of Naby Keita.

“When I stepped into the training ground, seeing how everything is there and what kind of players are playing here, it was just a dream come true for me.”

The international captain acknowledges the Gerrard comparisons are a massive compliment but insists he is writing his own story.

Despite the team’s recent domestic struggles, he remains completely focused on forging his own legacy and helping new arrivals adapt to the demanding English top flight.
