Liverpool attacker Lazar Markovic believes he can become one of the Premier League’s best ever players this season.

    The forward man moved to Anfield in a £20m move this summer after helping Portuguese club Benfica to a treble winning season and he has sent a warning to Premier League opposition ahead of what could be his debut in Monday night’s tie with Manchester City.

    Speaking to the Mirror, the 20-year-old said that he is ready to help Liverpool improve on their second place finish last season.

    “I am ready to play straight away, I can become one of the best players in the Premier League.

    “Perhaps I am so confident because in every season I have played I have finished as a ­champion.

    “I thought that Liverpool were the best team last season and, yes, I thought they should have been ­champions. Luck played a part in the outcome of the title.”
