Following last season's fifth place finish, Liverpool fans are demanding plenty of activity in the market, as is new head coach Andoni Iraola. "Dominik SzoboszlaiHad added that "in my football career, I can say this is in the top three" best days, alongside "when I signed for Liverpool... and when I got my baby".



Well, according to Fabrizio Romano, this new deal means that Szoboszlai is "one of the best-paid players in the Liverpool squad", jumping up from £150,000-per-week to a reported figure of £250,000-per-week.

The top earner Mohamed Salah (£400,000-per-week) alongside Ibrahima Konaté (£150,000-per-week) and Andy Robertson (£175,000-per-week) have all departed, freeing up a sizeable chunk of the wage bill for new recruits. As Iraola looks to reshape and rebuild his squad this summer, Szoboszlai is one player whose name is written in permanent marker in Liverpool's best XI, and there are not too many of those.
