Former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher has compared Reds midfielder Ryan Gravenberch to Arsenal legend Patrick Vieira.
Vieira is considered one of the best defensive midfielders in the Premier League era.
The Frenchman made a staggering 401 appearances for Arsenal, scoring 32 goals and providing 45 assists across all competitions.
Meanwhile, Gravenberch, who joined Liverpool from Bayern Munich for €40 million this summer, scored his first goal for Liverpool in the 2-0 win against Union Saint-Gilloise in the Europa League a few days ago.
Comparing the 21-year-old Netherlands international to Vieira, Carragher said (via TBR):
“Just looking at him, he looks like a footballer—the size, the physique. He reminds me a little bit of Patrick Vieira, that way he glides through with the ball. You can see signs of that.”
