Liverpool defender Conor Bradley is entering his third Premier League season with a “different” mindset.
The 22-year-old already holds a winner’s medal from the Reds’ 2024-25 title-winning campaign, having contributed in 30 league appearances over two seasons.
With that valuable experience under his belt, Bradley is now aiming to cement his place in Arne Slot’s squad while chasing more silverware.
Speaking to Liverpoolfc.com after Thursday’s open training session in Hong Kong, he said: “It definitely does feel different this year.
“I still know it’s going to be difficult, fighting for places and things like that, with Jeremie [Frimpong] coming in. It’s really good.
“I’ve worked hard on myself in the summer and I’ve come back in good shape. Looking forward to the start of the season and hopefully we’ll have another good one.”
The French striker is the seventh signing made by the Premier League champions this summer, following the completion of a transfer agreement with Eintracht Frankfurt.
“Obviously we have brought in quite a lot of new players, which is really good and has given us a lot of strength,” Bradley continued.
“Obviously the players that were here were really good as well because we just won the league last year.
“It’s nice to see and it’s good for us because it all makes us better and makes training higher quality. It’s really good and I’ve really enjoyed it.”
