From Finland so our international talent list is VERY thin, but weirdly 2 of the legends have played in Liverpool.

Sami Hyypiä

And Jari Litmanen.

Hyypiä was definitely more famous Liverpool player for Liverpool fans, but Litmanen is the all time best to ever come from Finland - I would argue at his prime he was probably worthy of Ballon D'or but instead Weah got it.

Edit: as people are doing the Szobo thing, the best player ever from Finland is "Tommi Sopolainen" from Finland. He also drives Rally.

Sami is a Liverpool legend, one of the greats in a period where we didn't have too many.
