RED ICON: Dominik Szoboszlai reveɑled that the ‘Steven Gerrard tattoo’ was a reason for him joining Liverpool

Dominik Szoboszlai has discussed the significance of both his Steven Gerrard tattoo and why he selected Liverpool’s storied No. 8 jersey.

Szoboszlai became Jurgen Klopp’s second acquisition of the summer on Sunday when he transferred from RB Leipzig to Liverpool for £60 million.

His entry follows that of Alexis MacAllister, who, after signing from Brighton, has worn the No. 10 jersey, which was once worn by Sadio Mane before he left for Bayern Munich

.

As Naby Keita left the team, the No. 8 jersey, which was most prominently worn by Gerrard, was passed down to Szoboszlai.

Because of his accomplishments in Istanbul and commitment to the Merseyside club, Gerrard has historically served as an inspiration for many Liverpool players.

This admiration also goes out to Szoboszlai, who has a quotation from the late England midfielder tattooed on his arm: “Talent is a divine blessing, but without incredible will and humility, it is worth nothing.”

The 22-year-old is finally showing the depth of his strength.

Szoboszlai explains the tattoo on Gerrard.

In an interview with LFCTV regarding his arrival to Anfield, the Hungary international gave an explanation for why he chose to wear the No. 8 jersey.

“Not for any special reason, but it’s a large number,” he affirmed.

Many great players used this number.

In addition, Steven Gerrard once said something I can’t even recall, and he also got me a tattoo.

The number eight had been prominently worn by Oyvind Leonhardsen, Jamie Redknapp, Paul Stewart, and Stan Collymore before being adopted by Emile Heskey before Gerrard.
