Jeremy Jacquet has called his transfer to Liverpool a 'big dream' after completing his move to the club.

Liverpool agreed a deal to sign Jacquet from Rennes earlier his year for a fee in the region of £55m.

The centre-back's transfer has now officially been confirmed and he will link up with Andoni Iraola's squad for their pre-season schedule.

The 20-year-old enjoyed a breakthrough campaign in Ligue 1 last season, before a serious shoulder injury prematurely curtailed his campaign.

Jacquet will add to Liverpool's centre-back options, following the departure of Ibrahima Konate to Real Madrid on a free transfer.
