The defender, who have been heavily linked with a move to Liverpool, was impressive in Germany’s win over Ukraine.
Germany defender Jonas Hector put in a solid display as his side beat Ukraine this weekend.
The defender was named in Germany’s staring line-up, filling in the left-back role for Joachim Loew’s side.
It proved to be a good evening for the reigning world champions too as goals from Shkrodan Mustafi and Bastian Schweinsteiger saw them to a 2-0 win in their Euro 2016 opening game.
There will be have been keen interest in Hector’s performance, with Liverpool having been continually linked with his signature this summer.
Indeed, last week saw the Daily Mail claiming that Liverpool had scouted him in a recent friendly and he was top of manager Jurgen Klopp’s wish list.
If Klopp was watching his display against Ukraine, he is likely to have been impressed as the stats provided by WhoScored show he put in a solid showing.
