Dominic Solanke : Klopp Is One Of The Best Managers In The World

England international of Nigerian parentage Dominic Solanke says he enjoys playing under Jürgen Klopp, adding that the German is one of the best managers in the world.

It was Klopp that approved the signing of the Golden Ball winner of the 2017 Fifa U20 World Cup from Chelsea in the summer transfer window, and the talented young striker has appeared fourteen times for the first team in all competitions.

''He's one of the best managers in the world and he's worked with some of the best players in the world as well. When he gives positive feedback, it's warming for me,'' Solanke told Sky Sports.

"I definitely need that. With me playing my first proper season in the Premier League I know there is a lot to learn.''

Solanke managed only one first-team appearance for Chelsea throughout the thirteen years he spent at Stamford Bridge.

The 20-year-old made his senior England debut against Brazil in a pre-World Cup friendly last month but remains eligible to wear the colours of the Super Eagles.
