​Liverpool boss Klopp hails 'super smart' Rangers for buying Davies

Liverpool defender Ben Davies will be an excellent signing for Rangers.

That is according to Reds boss Jurgen Klopp, who has hailed the Scottish giants as being "super smart" for securing his signature.

The 26-year-old has signed for the club permanently after spending 18 months with Liverpool.

"Super move. Very positive outcome," Klopp told the club's website.

"Rangers is a fantastic club, a big club. Ben belongs on a big stage for sure. European football as well. This presents a proper opportunity to demonstrate his quality and composure.

"As a person he's as good a guy as you could hope to meet.

"It's a smart piece of recruitment from Giovanni van Bronckhorst, to be honest. Perfect for all parties. He has himself an accomplished defender, who is entering his peak years and whose character is top drawer.

"We wish Ben nothing but the success he deserves and will be following from here as he goes on to make many achievements during the rest of his career."
