Dominik Szoboszlai has been one of Liverpool’s standout players this season.
The Hungarian midfielder has shown his class in both attack and defense, proving why the club spent £60 million to bring him from RB Leipzig in 2023.
His latest performance against Tottenham in the Carabao Cup semi-final second leg was another reminder of his quality.
The Reds needed a big performance after losing the first leg, and Szoboszlai delivered.
He scored once, created two big chances, won seven duels, and made three tackles.
Liverpool crushed Spurs 4-0 at Anfield, booking a trip to Wembley for the final against Newcastle United.
After that match, Fabrizio Romano, the well-known transfer journalist, referred to Szoboszlai as a “demon” in midfield via an Instagram post.
Romano has a huge following on social media, and his words quickly gained attention among Liverpool fans.
The nickname sparked discussion, with many supporters agreeing that Szoboszlai’s energy and intensity on the pitch make him a nightmare for opponents.
But the man himself was a little puzzled by the label.
The question Dominik Szoboszlai wants to ask Fabrizio Romano
During an interview with Spiller TV in Hungary, Szoboszlai was asked about Romano’s comment.
He admitted he saw it but still isn’t sure what it means.
“I’ve read some articles about him calling me that,” he said.
“Honestly, I’ll ask him why he thought of that name, maybe then I can figure it out.”
It’s clear Szoboszlai is taking it in good spirits, but he genuinely wants to know the reasoning behind it.
Considering his work rate and impact on games, it’s not surprising that someone like Romano would use such a strong description.
So, will Romano explain himself?
That remains to be seen.
But one thing is certain, Szoboszlai has fully embraced life at Liverpool.
With five goals, five assists, and an all-action style, he’s becoming a key figure under Arne Slot.
Whether he’s a “demon” or not, he’s certainly a problem for opposition teams.
