Javier Manquillo has said that he has "everything to prove to Sunderland not Liverpool" as he attempts to make an impression at the Stadium of Light this season.
The 22-year-old joined Sunderland on loan from Atletico Madrid in the latter stages of the transfer window.
It will be the second time that the defender has played in England after a forgettable loan spell at Liverpool during the 2014-15 campaign, and Manquillo has revealed that he is keen to impress the Black Cats.
"I have everything to prove to Sunderland not Liverpool. That is the team I want to impress," Manquillo told reporters.
It is understood that Sunderland have the chance to sign the former Spain Under-21 international on a permanent deal at the end of the 2016-17 campaign.
