Fabinho on how everyone at Liverpool will help Gakpo ‘feel the love’

It’s never easy for a new player to adjust to a new team and Fabinho has revealed how the whole club will act to make sure Cody Gakpo feels as welcome as possible, as quickly as possible.

Speaking to the club’s official website: “The people at the club, not only the coach and the players, but also the people who work in the kitchen and everyone, were very nice to me. This will be no different with Gakpo.

“So I hope he feels the love, feels really welcome here and is ready to play. It is very important that a player of this quality arrived to help the team.

“We know what he is capable of doing. He had a very good World Cup and in the Dutch league he was one of the best players. Now I think he wants to show that he can also do the same at this level, at a club like LFC.

“We will try to help him adapt as quickly as possible and we hope he will be a great help to us because we need a player like this.”

The 23-year-old is certainly encouraged by the fact that he can already speak English and has played under Virgil van Dijk at international level, but he will also have to adjust to a new life on Merseyside.

Knowing that his workplace is so welcoming, however, should ensure he quickly feels at home with the Reds and also hearing that our No. 3 feels so settled is great news.

Jurgen Klopp is always interested in making sure the players are aware of the importance of each member of staff at the AXA Training Center and we all know the role of the legendary Carol and Caroline in making everyone feel like family.

Let’s hope the Dutchman adjusts quickly to life with the Reds and that we can see him add to our already potent attacking force, as well as fill the void for the currently injured Luis Diaz, Diogo Jota and Bobby Firmino.
