Nathaniel Clyne officially moved to Liverpool from Southampton after three seasons with the Saints.
Liverpool confirmed that they've signed the 24-year-old right-back for a long-term deal reportedly worth £12.5 million. Reports claimed that Clyne has agreed to a five-year contract.
The England national footballer started his senior career with the Crystal Palace coming from their youth program in 2008. On July 2012, he signed a four-year deal with the newly promoted Southampton where he eventually made almost 100 appearances.
"I'm delighted and it's a dream move for me to come here and play for such a big club with all of its history. I can't wait to get started," Clyne was quoted by Liverpool's official website.
"As soon as Liverpool showed their interest in me, I was happy and just wanted the deal to go through. The gaffer has shown a lot of interest in me and this is a place where I can improve as a player, I think. It's definitely a good opportunity to come here and try to fulfil my potential.
"I've played at Anfield before and know what the atmosphere is all about. It's a great atmosphere and will make me rise to the challenge. I'm really looking forward to it and hopefully it can push me on to putting on good performances."
The Reds have previously signed James Milner, Danny Ings, Adam Bogdan, Joe Gomez and Roberto Firmino this summer.
