The 24-year-old signed from Paris Saint-Germain in a deal worth up to £123 million (£106 million upfront plus £17 million in add-ons), and he's in line to make his debut tonight off the bench as Liverpool kick off the Premier League weekend away at Ipswich Town.If you were hoping to see him in the starting lineup, you'll have to wait. His last competitive game was for France in their wild 6-4 defeat to England back on July 18, meaning he hasn't played a single minute of pre-season.Liverpool boss Andoni Iraola explained to Sky Sports why he's holding the forward back:"I was tempted to start him.

He's looked good in training but he hasn't played any minutes in pre-season. He's ready, I think definitely we will use him in the second half.

He's quite shy, doesn't speak a lot and is improving his English. He is more comfortable with Jeremy Jacquet and Hugo Ekitike, his friends."The team newsIraola has kept his wingers the same as last weekend's 2-2 draw with Nottingham Forest.
