Jeremy Jacquet is currently getting to know his new Liverpool teammates, including one who the French defender humorously described as ‘off his head’.The 21-year-old officially completed his move from Rennes at the start of July, with the deal having been agreed five months previously, and has been training with Andoni Iraola’s squad in the United States on their pre-season tour.DOWNLOAD THE OFFICIAL EMPIRE OF THE KOP APP FOR ALL THE LATEST & BREAKING UPDATES – STRAIGHT TO YOUR PHONE!
