Liverpool midfield ace has ‘always dreamt’ of playing for Real Madrid, claims national team coach | OneFootball

In recent times, Dominik Szoboszlai has become one of the most important players for Liverpool.

Since joining the club in 2023, the playmaker has featured in 128 competitive matches, racking up almost 50 goal involvements.

Szoboszlai’s name, though, has become a hot topic in the Real Madrid camp as well, especially after the revelation of his national team coach, Marco Rossi.

Marco Rossi’s claim about Szoboszlai

Rossi, who has maintained a close relationship with the midfielder since his childhood, has recently revealed that playing for Real Madrid has been the 25-year-old’s dream.

“Because of the very close and direct relationship I have with Dominik Szoboszlai since he started playing football as a child, Real Madrid has always been his dream,” he said, in a recent interview with WinWin (h/t MARCA).

However, Rossi was quick to bring the situation back to reality by acknowledging the player’s current commitments.

Szoboszlai has evolved into a key figure at Anfield, growing into a leadership role within one of Europe’s most prestigious clubs.

Rossi noted that the final decision regarding any potential move rests with both the player and Liverpool, a club where he is already highly valued.

“I don’t know if he’ll be able to take that step, because the decision depends on him and also on his club,” he said.

The coach did not rule out the possibility of a contract renewal at Anfield, emphasising that Liverpool remains one of the biggest clubs in the world.

“I absolutely don’t rule out the possibility of him staying at Liverpool and renewing his contract there, especially because he’s highly valued within the club,” he concluded.
