Minamino targets Premier League and Champions League titles with Liverpool

New Liverpool signing Takumi Minamino admitted that he has high hopes for his career after his transfer was announced on Thursday, with it the Japan international's intention to lift both the Premier League trophy and secure a Champions League title with his new club.

Minamino's switch from Red Bull Salzburg will be fully finalised on January 1, when the winter transfer window opens, with the winger having agreed on personal terms and completed a medical on Merseyside earlier this week.

The Reds had been tracking the 24-year-old for some time and fans were able to see their new addition in action as Salzburg faced Liverpool twice in Europe this season, with Minamino himself getting on the scoresheet in a high-octane 4-3 result at Anfield.
