Liverpool defender Ben Davies has admitted to feeling a "mental release" after he joined Sheffield United on loan last month, the Mirror reports.

The 26-year-old arrived at Anfield in February after eight years with Preston, but has so far failed to make an appearance for Jurgen Klopp's side.

He said: "I was becoming aware that I was the fifth or sixth choice to play in the centre of the defence for Liverpool. When I joined Sheffield United, with the promise of playing games, it felt like I had finally been mentally released.

“I feel that just being around top players has improved me. I feel I’ve grown up. It’s helped me settle in quickly at Sheffield United and hopefully that has shown in the games I’ve played."
