'I know the history of the club and the Premier League is the best league in the world, in my opinion.
'I used to watch Jamie Carragher play as a young boy and I would have loved to have had the chance to train and play with him. I'd also like to one day maybe fill his place, too.
'Liverpool, have a great team and I think it's the place for me to be at the moment.'

The 22-year-old former Crystal Palace and Wigan player links up with central defenders Mamadou Sakho and Tiago Ilori, who have joined Liverpool for a combined fee of about £25m, at Anfield.
