Interview'Now I need my first Premier League goal!'
Ryan Gravenberch has expressed his desire to register a first Premier League goal of his Liverpool career after netting twice in the Europa League so far.
The 21-year-old is enjoying an encouraging start to life on Merseyside following his summer move from Bayern Munich.
Gravenberch has impressed during his first 11 appearances for the Reds, scoring twice – against Union SG and Toulouse at Anfield.
Now, he is targeting a first Premier League strike.
“I need one!” the Dutchman told Premier League Productions with a smile. “And I will make one for sure, I hope!
“I’m here now for a few weeks. It’s still early days but I’m feeling good, everything is sorted and everything is good.
“It’s been very good for me, to be fair. I made a good start, I’m very happy about that. And the home games with Liverpool, the atmosphere, to be honest it’s amazing. I’m just happy.”
Liverpool’s next Premier League assignment is a trip to Luton Town on Sunday.
Jürgen Klopp’s men head to Kenilworth Road in good form, having won each of their last four games in all competitions, including Wednesday’s 2-1 victory at AFC Bournemouth in the Carabao Cup.
Gravenberch said ahead of the clash: “There are no easy games. There is not one single team that is bad, or not good. Every single game you have to give everything. That’s the Premier League.
“I [have] seen the stadium, it’s different from normal! I’m excited to go there.”

Reflecting on the challenge of playing in the Premier League as opposed to the Bundesliga and Eredivisie, where he has previously plied his trade, the No.38 added: “There is more intensity, and also physically [it is harder].
“I think the Premier League is the number one competition in the world. It’s different from where I came from.
“For me, I am enjoying playing again, being on the pitch, playing with my teammates and showing everything I can. That is good for me as a person and as a player, that I can do that again.”
