Dominik Szoboszlai has moved to quell rumors of friction between himself and teammates Curtis Jones and Kostas Tsimikas. The Liverpool midfielder clarified that a disagreement caught on camera following a preseason win against Wrexham was a minor misunderstanding rather than a serious dispute. Footage showed the players interacting over the captain’s armband, which was eventually dropped to the ground by Tsimikas. Szoboszlai insisted that no lasting anger remains and that the squad is in good spirits.
Addressing the team leadership, the Hungarian captain noted that no formal discussions regarding the vice-captaincy have taken place following the exit of Andy Robertson. He expressed that while stepping into such a role would be an honor, he is focused on supporting whoever the club chooses to lead. Looking ahead to the upcoming campaign, he emphasized that the team is highly motivated to improve upon their previous season’s performance.
Regarding squad depth, Szoboszlai highlighted the impressive development of young talent Trey Nyoni and welcomed the fresh start under new manager Andoni Iraola. He noted that every player is currently competing for a spot, creating an environment where everyone must prove their worth. Finally, the midfielder corrected a previous linguistic slip, confirming that teammate Alexis Mac Allister will return to the squad as planned.
