The Dutch international, who joined Liverpool from PSV Eindhoven, has played 25 games this season, scoring eight goals and assisting three, while being used in a variety of positions, including center forward, left winger, and inside half.
The forward, who switched from Holland to England during the winter transfer window last year, seems to have been influenced a lot by Mohamed Salah, the reigning ace of his new team, and mentioned the professionalism of the Egyptian King.
“I have learned a lot from Mo already,”
“He is a real professional. He is always the first in the gym and the last out. Maybe that sounds a little bit cliched but it’s true. Even if you get in really early, Mo is always there first”
“You see how he moves and how he does things on the pitch but also outside of the pitch and what he eats too.”
“I think Mo is also a person who is trying to also help the younger players to develop and I appreciate that a lot form him. I have spoken to him a lot of times about smart things he does, how it has helped him and maybe how it can help me as well to become a better player.”
