Dominik Szoboszlai has stated that having a Steven Gerrard tattoo on his figure was one of the reasons he chose to wear the number 8 for Liverpool.

Many of Liverpool’s recent signings look up to Gerrard because of his successes as captain, particularly in Istanbul.
Szoboszlai also got a tattoo that read, “Talent is a divine blessing, but without incredible will and humility, it is worth nothing,” because the well-known midfielder had a significant influence on him.
When the 22-year-old first arrived at Anfield, LFCTV asked him how he felt about wearing the No. 8 jersey.
Many of Liverpool’s new signings look up to Gerrard as a role model because of his accomplishments as captain, particularly in Istanbul.
Szoboszlai was inspired by the famous midfielder, as evidenced by a tattoo on his back that read, “Talent is a divine blessing, but without incredible will and humility, it is worth nothing.”
When he first arrived at Anfield, the 22-year-old was asked by LFCTV about his feelings about wearing the No. 8 jersey.
He said, “Oh, I see,” and I replied, “Not for any special reason, but it’s a large number.”
This jersey number has been worn by numerous distinguished athletes.
In addition, I have Steven Gerrard’s name tattooed on me. What he said happened before, but I can’t put it in chronological order. It was an additional factor.

Before Gerrard, the No. 8 jersey was worn by Emile Heskey, Oyvind Leonhardsen, Jamie Redknapp, Stan Collymore, and Paul Stewart during the Premier League era.
Szoboszlai appears to have been greatly inspired to create this by the well-known 43-year-old today.
