Dominik Szoboszlai has revealed he has reached out to Manchester City striker Erling Haaland for advice after completing his move to Liverpool on Sunday.
the £60m signing has also detailed his busy off-the-field schedule before he reports for pre-season training with his new club on July 11 at the AXA Training Centre.
Szoboszlai developed a close friendship with City striker Haaland during their time together with Red Bull Salzburg
Szoboszlai:
"We've talked," "
So much so that Erling Haaland has also advised on finding real estate, and it could very well be that we become neighbours"
"I learned from him that several players live halfway between Manchester and Liverpool in a quiet area where privacy can be preserved, and on Monday I will see what he was talking about, I am very curious.
"And of course, putting our friendship aside during the Liverpool-Manchester City matches, it will surely be a fantastic experience to play against each other."
Szoboszlai also sought the counsel of former Liverpool goalkeeper Peter Gulacsi who he played with at Leipzig, adding:
"I've spoken to him before and he knows what our relationship is like. He was there in Leipzig when I got there, I became a player for the club and I could count on his support from the very first moment.
"He was a very good team-mate of mine and I hope he got over his injury and there will be another Champions League match between Liverpool and RB Leipzig where he can try to save my free-kick!
"I'll do some training on Monday, I have some paperwork to do, and then look at some potential properties where I'd like to live.
Then I have to go to Leipzig, pack up my stuff, say goodbye to my former club, thank everyone for their support, love and encouragement and then to Budapest. But on the 10th at the latest I will be back in Liverpool, because on the 11th I will be training for my new team."
Szoboszlai added:
I'm trying to take it step by step, I definitely need time to get used to the rhythm of the Premier League, the way Liverpool plays, Jurgen Klopp's ideas.
"The opportunity to play is the most important thing, as always, and if I have that, obviously I want to score as many goals as possible, give assists, make myself accepted by my surroundings, by the fans. I want to deserve the confidence that they give me here in Liverpool at every moment."
