Who is Yussuf Poulsen? Keita's Liverpool-supporting team-mate who wants Premier League move

The RB Leipzig forward has repeatedly expressed a desire to move to England, but who is the Danish forward known more for tackling than goalscoring?

When RB Leipzig head coach Ralph Hasenhuttl appeared on German late night chat show ARD last year, the tactician impressed viewers with his excellent piano playing. One person who was not watching was Leipzig forward Yussuf Poulsen, who was already in bed and missed his coach's rendition of Depeche Mode's 'Enjoy the Silence'.

Poulsen is not the type of player to while away the hours watching late night television, and is instead fully focused on becoming a better football player.
