As quoted by The Daily Star, young Reds winger Ryan Kent has revealed that he wants to star under Jurgen Klopp for the senior side.
The diminutive winger has plenty of tricks to help him get out of tight situations and is currently on loan at Barnsley who have gone well this season in the Championship.
He’ll be hoping that spell puts him in good stead for a chance at the senior side when he returns, then, and has certainly suggested as such with his latest comments.
He said:
“The manager gave me my debut last year when I came back from Coventry and to see him giving out even more debuts this year and putting his trust in young players in big games is pivotal – it inspires you.
“Not many clubs are giving young players these opportunities, so that’s more inspiration for me to go back to Liverpool in the summer, work hard in pre-season, and push forward for the first team.”
The 20-year-old left winger has been a mainstay for the Oakwell based outfit this season with 33 appearances and two goals and two assists thrown into the bargain.
It remains to be seen whether he makes it into the senior side, of course, but Klopp’s willingness to use youth could just offer him hope.
