Leeds signing Junior Firpo targeting success against Man Utd, Liverpool

Leeds United signing Junior Firpo is targeting success against Manchester United and Liverpool next season.

Speaking in a Q&A with LiveNow, Firpo was asked who he is most looking forward to facing.

“Maybe I like to match Rashford or Sancho, but Sancho I play against him in Dortmund [in the] Champions [League], but I want to play against Rashford, I like him," he said.

Leeds began last season at Anfield, but will face an entirely different prospect this time around with the expectation Liverpool fans will be in place for the Boxing Day fixture.

Firpo picked out that trip to Merseyside as the match he is most looking forward to.

“Maybe Liverpool," he said. “Liverpool at Anfield is a really, really good atmosphere, no?

“It's really, really good fans and I always see on the TV all the fans singing You'll Never Walk Alone.

“I want to play there. Yes, Liverpool."
