Atletico Madrid midfielder Saul Niguez admits he models his game on Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard.
Even Saul's father has likened the youngster to Gerrard in several recent interviews.
"Gerrard has always been a reference for me. He is a legend. A player who is able to win the ball, play it from behind, can get forward, will work hard to get it back and always with the mouth closed.
"He is an example for anyone. Hopefully someday the fans of Atletico look at me as Liverpool fans love him."
Saul added: "The position I like is the defensive or offensive midfielder. I think that's where I can perform well."
