Ekitike insists he is confident that Liverpool is the ideal club for his development as a player. It's annoying but I know he [Slot] wants the best for me and he wants the best for the team.

I would say he's on my back, but not for a bad reason" added Ekitike. He continued: "He just wants to help me, so I don’t take that badly.

He wants me to give more and more. I take that in a good way." When asked about the instructions he’s been receiving, the former Paris Saint-Germain star said: “Obviously, keep my shirt on,” a reference to his red card against Southampton in September, when he was shown a second yellow for celebrating his winning goal by removing his jersey.
