Dominic Solanke: Move From Chelsea To Liverpool Was Easy For Me

Chelsea product Dominic Solanke has admitted that he did not have to think twice about accepting a proposal from Liverpool in the summer.

The England international of Nigerian descent ended his thirteen-year association with the Premier League champions in July and has thanked his teammates for helping him to settle quickly.

''The move was quite easy for me, all the boys made me feel welcome, all the staff made me feel welcome," Solanke told Liverpool Echo.

"It's a great club. everyone's looking forward to what we can do in the season.

"It's been a good start and it's still early so we'll keep pushing in the Premier League and hopefully we'll qualify in the Champions league as well.''

Solanke did not make the Reds match day squad in last weekend's 1-1 draw with his former team Chelsea.

''Growing up there (Chelsea) it was a long time so I knew quite a lot of the players. I think it's important not to dwell on games where you don't do as well as you think you can,'' he added.

The Golden Ball winner at the 2017 Fifa U20 World Cup has made ten appearances for Liverpool's first team since completing his transfer.
