Dominik Szoboszlai, a target for Liverpool, once adopted the peculiar practice of practicing with golf balls in his hands, and the reasoning is quite logical.
The Reds are attempting to recruit the Hungarian international as their second acquisition of the summer, following their acquisition of Brighton’s Alexis MacAllister.
According to David Ornstein of The Athletic, Liverpool are now moving quickly to sign the 22-year-old after initially thinking that the move would be’very difficult’ to complete.
Szoboszlai’s contract with RB Leipzig does include a €70 million release clause. The provision, according to Sky Germany correspondent Philipp Hinze, expires on June 30. However, there have been other conflicting accounts.
while there have been further contradictory reports since June 30.
If the Reds are successful, they will have acquired a dynamic attacking midfielder who can win the ball in risky situations, score goals, and provide assists.
And even if it was expensive, it might turn out to be a big move for the Reds as they try to get back into the title race in the Premier League.
Additionally, they would be bringing in a player who isn’t scared to practice novel techniques in order to improve.
The Szoboszlai “golf ball” training technique
The fathers of Szobozslai and another Hungary player, Bolla Bendeguz, made the decision to start the self-run training facility Fonix in October 2022, according to a story in the Hungarian publication Telex.
The father of Szoboszlai devised a few workouts, one of which involved giving his son two golf
Holding a ball in each hand, the midfielder searched for “perfect technical solutions” when he did not get the ball in the ideal circumstance.
According to the report, the golf balls accomplished the goal of each exercise, which was to demonstrate that following a poor ball reception, you shouldn’t use your hands to yank the attacking player back into the battle but should instead try to find the best technical fixes.
“If we consider the outcome, the approach is successful.”
The 22-year-old is among the most technically gifted midfielders in the world of football, so the workout undoubtedly appears to have had a big impact.
Liverpool supporters will be hoping that he can continue to develop his game further at Anfield, if he signs, and help the club to win trophies.
