Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher has had his say on Liverpool being interested in a transfer move for Bayer Leverkusen attacking midfielder Florian Wirtz— and Federico Chiesa starting a Premier League game for the first time against Brighton.

"I’ve had this thing with Szoboszlai, I actually think he’s got the qualities for central midfield," Carragher said on Sky Sports.

"When you describe his energy, it’s more what he does off the ball rather than what he does on the ball, and Liverpool are getting linked with a guy from Bayer Leverkusen.

"What might be interesting is, let’s say for instance that deal got done, Szoboszlai’s energy is vitally important to Liverpool.

"I think he’s just giving him a game," the pundit said

"The supporters love him because he’s got a great chant, but he hasn’t really offered too much.

"People may say he hasn’t had too much of an opportunity

He’s had injury problems in the past, but it hasn’t really worked, and all I would say is the manager watches him train every single day

He hasn’t put him in, but he’s put him in now the title’s won."
