Jose Enrique has praised Liverpool defender Joe Gomez on Twitter for his performance against Newcastle United at St. James’ Park in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon.
The former Liverpool star was impressed by Gomez during Liverpool’s game against Newcastle this afternoon.
The 24-year-old is a versatile footballer who can operate as a central defender or as a right-back.
Gomez started at right-back for Liverpool against Newcastle, and his performance impressed Enrique.

Uncertain future
In our opinion, Gomez’s future at Liverpool is far from certain.
Yes, the 24-year-old started against Newcastle at right-back, but Trent Alexander-Arnold is the clear first-choice right-back at Liverpool.
Virgil van Dijk, Joel Matip and Ibrahima Konate are ahead of Gomez in the pecking order in central defence.
The Express reported last month that Tottenham Hotspur, Newcastle United, West Ham United and Fulham all are interested in signing Gomez in the summer transfer window.
Liverpool reportedly rated the England international at £23 million.
In our view, Gomes should seriously consider his future at Liverpool if he gets good offers from other clubs.
