Turkish midfielder Nuri Sahin insists that Liverpool are the "biggest club in England".

Liverpool midfielder Nuri Sahin has insisted that he is playing for the "biggest club in England".

The Turkish international joined the Reds on a season-long loan basis from Real Madrid towards the end of the summer transfer window.

Despite the fact that his new team have not won the league title since 1990, the 24-year-old has claimed that they remain the team to beat in England.

"I'd spoken with Jose Mourinho three times," Sahin told NTVSport. "He wanted me to play in the Premier League but didn't refer to a specific team.

"I've chosen Liverpool because I wanted to play in a football team with a tradition.

"I played at one of the biggest clubs in Germany, Borussia Dortmund, and Real Madrid. And now, I play for the biggest club in England."

Sahin has made one Premier League appearance so far for the Reds.
