New Liverpool striker Danny Ings has described the Anfield atmosphere as a "massive reason" behind his decision to join the club from Burnley.

The England Under-21 forward joined the Reds from the Clarets, with an independent tribunal fee still to be decided between the clubs.

Ings told the club's official website: "[The support] was also a massive reason why I wanted to come here, because the fanbase is massive - you go anywhere in the world and there are Liverpool fans.

"The night [Burnley travelled to Anfield] was unbelievable and the atmosphere was unbelievable. Obviously Liverpool beat us that night and played extremely well, but to get a feel of what it's actually like - because I'd never played at Anfield before.

"It really showed me how strong the atmosphere is and how much the crowd do get behind the team. It's fantastic."

Ings has also recently talked up his eagerness to work under manager Brendan Rodgers.
