# Liverpool: Reds fans hail Joel Matip training video

**Some Liverpool supporters have been showing their love for Reds cult hero Joel Matip, following a brilliant video which emerged of him in training.**

The Cameroonian is a hugely popular member of Jurgen Klopp’s squad, possessing a likeable character that rubs off on both the fans and his teammates.

Most importantly, however, Matip is an excellent centre-back when he is available, although constant [injury problems](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/joel-matip/verletzungen/spieler/82105) have held him back.

The 29-year-old missed a huge chunk of last season because of fitness issues, but he is now available again and looking sharp in pre-season.

On Monday night, a brilliant video of Matip was posted on Liverpool’s [official Twitter account](https://twitter.com/LFC/status/1417208620421304338?s=20), showing the defender producing strong physicality and also technical brilliance, marauding around the pitch in the process.
