Playing style

McKennie has described his style as ‘win the ball and look to play it’ – and Liverpool are not short of those kind of players.He would likely rival Jordan Henderson and Fabinho for a place in the heart of Liverpool’s midfield, providing an engine and recycling possession.However, McKennie is versatile – he’s played in a back three for Schalke, and the United States have deployed him in a more attacking role.
