    After moving to Liverpool, Ryan Gravenberch said he’s looking forward to hearing the Kop sing “You’ll Never Walk Alone.”

    On deadline day, the Reds formally announced the signing of Gravenberch from Bayern Munich after the player signed a long-term contract with the club.

    The four midfielders Jurgen Klopp’s team has added only this summer alone include the Dutch international. In a new-look midfield following the losses of long-serving Liverpool stars Jordan Henderson and Fabinho, who both moved to the Saudi Pro League, Gravenberch joins Alexis Mac Allister, Dominik Szoboszlai, and Wataru Endo.

    Speaking to the club’s official website after making the move to Anfield, Gravenberch revealed what he’s excited about after putting pen to paper: “I’m very happy. Very happy that the deal is done and I’m finally here.

    “If you see it from the outside, it’’s one of the biggest clubs in the world. Also the fans, the stadium, I think everything from the outside is top. So that’s why [it was the right club].

    “I’m really looking forward to [being at Anfield] and I can’t wait to hear the ‘You’ll Never Walk Alone’ song.

    “Now we start fresh again, a new start, and I’m going to give my all for this club. [My ambitions are] to win prizes. To win prizes, play a lot and show them who we are and who I am.”

    Gravenberch also admitted that he spoke to international teammates Virgil van Dijk and Cody Gakpo about his move to Anfield in the days leading up to the transfer.

    “Before the move, I spoke a lot with the guys, they said we have a good team, everything is top here. Actually, my decision was quick,” he added.

    The loss of Gravenberch and the failure to sign Joao Palhinha from Fulham left Bayern Munich desperately short in the midfield. Only three senior midfielders remain for Thomas Tuchel to select from as the Bavarians prepare for a critical UEFA Champions League campaign.
