Ian Wright ranks Liverpool in regards to where world-class players should be looking to play

Former Arsenal footballer Ian Wright believes that Liverpool are the club that all the world-class footballers should be looking to play for.

In the past seven months, the Reds have claimed the UEFA Champions League, UEFA Super Cup and the FIFA Club World Cup.

Liverpool could very well add the Premier League title to the aforementioned list of achievements, as they currently possess a 22-point lead at the top of the table.

Wright believes that Liverpool are now at a point where they are more of an attractive option for the top players in comparison to the likes of the Spanish giants.

Wright told BBC Radio 5 Live, as quoted by Metro: “You look at Mbappe looking across, you could probably see him coming across here.

“I’d probably want to go to Liverpool [ahead of City] right now. Any player in the world with Liverpool, especially this season.

“You have to say that Liverpool are at the start of it now, so if you’re a world-class player, you’d probably want to get there now. It seems to me, as we saw with Pep, he’s had two years of unbelievable football, but I feel that Liverpool are really getting ready to build something special.

“If I am Mbappe. I am looking at Liverpool. Where else you want to go if you are Mbappe now?”

Wright does make a fair point. Liverpool are challenging on every major front at this current moment, which does make the club a very attractive option for world-class players.

The likes of Real Madrid and Barcelona are no longer what they used to be, and with Liverpool playing at such a high level, no one can simply match them at this current moment.
