"As soon as Liverpool showed their interest in me, I was happy'' - Clyne

Liverpool new signing Nathaniel Clyne has told the club's official website how delighted he is with his move to Anfeild.

"I'm delighted and it's a dream move for me to come here and play for such a big club with all of its history," Clyne told Liverpool's official website. "I can't wait to get started.

"As soon as Liverpool showed their interest in me, I was happy and just wanted the deal to go through.

"The gaffer has shown a lot of interest in me and this is a place where I can improve as a player, I think. It's definitely a good opportunity to come here and try to fulfil my potential.

"I've played at Anfield before and know what the atmosphere is all about. It's a great atmosphere and will make me rise to the challenge. I'm really looking forward to it and hopefully it can push me on to putting on good performances."

Clyne is now the fourth player to join Liverpool from Southampton since the end of 2013-14, linking up with former team-mates Adam Lallana, Rickie Lambert and Dejan Lovren at Anfield.
