Liverpool have announced the signing of Dominik Szoboszlai from RB Leipzig.

The Reds have secured their second midfielder of the summer transfer window having already added Alexis Mac Allister to their ranks.

They have moved quickly to sign Hungary international Szoboszlai. 90min revealed on Wednesday that contact had been made with the player's camp and he was keen on a move to Anfield.

After initially signalling they were reluctant to meet Szoboszlai's £60m release clause, Liverpool agreed to table that amount on Friday and he travelled to Merseyside for his medical.

Liverpool have now announced that Szoboszlai's move to Anfield is complete.

"It’s really, really good," Szoboszlai said of his move to Liverpool. "I enjoyed the last [few] days and I’m looking forward to knowing everybody better.

"The last three or four days went really long; it was not that easy. But at the end I’m here, I’m happy and I can’t wait to get started.

"[A] really historic club, really good players, good coach, everything is good. For me it was perfect to make the next step in a club like this. The fans, the stadium, everything is really good."

90min understands that Newcastle United had also shown an interest in Szoboszlai having missed out on James Maddison to Tottenham Hotspur, but were put off by his lofty release clause.
