Liverpool fullback Neco Williams says defending daily against Sadio Mane has made him a better player.

Williams penned a new five-year contract with Liverpool yesterday.

"Most sessions I do at Melwood, I am up against Sadio," he explained to Liverpoolfc.com.

"Because in the teams we do, we have the starting team and the other team, and mostly every session when we have games back to back – a game always around the corner – I'm always up against Sadio.

"So, every session, it is difficult for me because I am up against one of the best wingers in the world, so I think that has definitely improved me as a player.

"I don't think there is any other way of becoming a better player than coming up against the best wingers in the world."
