Liverpool have confirmed the loan signing of Atletico Madrid defender Javier Manquillo.
The Spanish youth international, 20, will spend the next two seasons at Anfield.
Manquillo is the seventh player to join the Merseysiders ahead of the new Premier League campaign.
"I'm very happy to have signed for a club like Liverpool. I think it's one of the biggest in Europe. Any footballer would want to come and play here," he told Liverpool's official website.
"When they tell you Liverpool want to sign you, I think like any player, you are going to be absolutely amazed and you don't think of anything else than going straight there."
Manquillo penned his first professional deal with Atletico in 2012 following a spell in the club's youth academy.
