He has a lot of quality, works hard and has a very good goalscoring record. “When I spoke to him I could tell that he was passionate about joining the club and playing for our fantastic fans. I think they will be just as excited about seeing him put on a Liverpool shirt as I am. “It is great that we have managed to sign him so he can work with us from the first day of pre-season.”</blockquote>
