"It's something so rare to be that good on right foot and left foot, not many players in the world can do that," Solanke said of Son.
"To be that two-footed and be great at finishing with both of them is incredible. He's a great leader, one of the nicest guys I've met, to be honest. On the pitch, you see what he does on the weekends and it's the same in training."

A Reds superstar is concerned about the revamped Champions League.
Defensively, Solanke named his former Liverpool teammate Virgil van Dijk as the toughest defender he has faced.

Solanke has played for England at all youth levels, including under-21 and senior teams. He won the 2014 UEFA European Under-17 Championship and the 2017 FIFA U-20 World Cup, where he was awarded the Golden Ball for best player. He also made one appearance for the senior national team in 2017.
