After Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai, Liverpool continue to recruit one more rookie, the Japanese player Wataru Endo.

Liverpool homepage announced that it has completed the recruitment process of Wataru Endo from VfB Stuttgart. The Japanese midfielder joined The Kop for about 19 million euros. He will stick with the Anfield team for 4 years.

Endo personally is very happy to join Liverpool: “I am very happy and excited to join a big team like Liverpool. It feels great because this is my dream. It is always a dream to play in the Premier League and in the shirt of one of the greatest teams in the world. My dream has finally come true.”

Japanese midfielder Endo has just completed the procedure to join Liverpool.

Besides, the Japanese midfielder also shared about his favorite position: “I play at number 6 and I’m a bit more like a defensive player. I think I can help the club increase its defense and organize well in the midfield. That is my job.”

At Anfield, Wataru Endo will wear the number 3 shirt – the old shirt number of Fabinho – who moved to play in the Saudi Arabia league in the summer of 2023. He can make his Liverpool debut right in the match against Bournemouth tomorrow ( 19 ) /8), forming a midfield trio with Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai.

Personally, Wataru Endo has had 4 seasons playing for Stuttgart. The 30-year-old midfielder made 133 appearances in all competitions and scored 15 goals. At the international level, Endo has 50 caps for Japan.
