Dominik Szoboszlai confirmed his partner is expecting a baby as he celebrated his first-half goal for Liverpool against Brighton on Monday.
The Hungarian restored Liverpool’s lead on the stroke of half-time, as he appeared to miscue a cross which fooled Bart Verbruggen and found the top corner.
Szoboszlai celebrated by putting the game ball under his jersey before sucking his thumb, with the club then writing on X: “Congratulations to Dom and his partner.”
Harvey Elliott scored the first goal of the game, rounding off a brilliant move which involved Szoboszlai, Mohamed Salah and Conor Bradley, before Yasin Ayari netted an equalizer.
Szoboszlai started the game in a deeper midfield role than usual, operating in front of Ryan Gravenberch but behind Harvey Elliott.
The Hungarian is usually deployed as Liverpool’s most advanced midfielder, ahead of Gravenberch and Alexis Mac Allister.
