The Dutch defender praises Liverpool's new centerpiece.
Ryan Gravenberch is currently in an ascending phase of his career at Liverpool. Having become the Reds' new hub in midfield, the Dutch international has gone from shadow to light.
Arriving at the Mersey club last September from Bayern Munich, the player was used sparingly by Jürgen Klopp. But since the arrival of his successor, Arne Slot, the former Ajax Amsterdam player has continued to play high-flying matches and performances, confirming week after week his new status as an indestructible player in Liverpool's eleven.
“It is essential for us”
For Liverpool and Netherlands captain Virgil Van Dijk, Gravenberch's progress is to be congratulated. According to him, his compatriot is on the right track to becoming one of the best defensive midfielders in the world. “Last year he didn't play much but we all saw his quality and it was essential he kept his head down and worked hard. This year he gained the necessary confidence. He can show his qualities week after week and every other day. He impresses me a lot. Not only on the field, but also off it”declared the 1m95 colossus.
And to add: “He’s still a young boy, but he’s becoming a man. How you approach the game on and off the field is essential to becoming a world-class player. The consistency he shows makes him a world-class player and he can only get better. He learns from difficult moments in matches. He has been almost flawless this season. I'm proud of him. It is essential for us. »
