Neil Lennon has rated Ben Doak a 'top talent' and has high hopes that the former Celtic kid will have a flourishing career.
The Hoops youngster was pinched for what is bound to prove a snip by English Premier League giants Liverpool, with the 17-year-old making a meteoric rise since the move. Ange Postecoglou handed the attacker his top team debut against Dundee United and further minutes in an Old Firm derby against Rangers but it wasn't enough to convince him to stay with the Scottish champions.
Jurgen Klopp and Liverpool came calling with the draw of teaming up with the likes of Mo Salah and Scotland skipper Andy Robertson too much to turn down. It has proved a stunning decision with his performances in the UEFA Youth League - including goals against Rangers - and in the Reds' youth set-up impressing the top team coaching staff and earning him a full debut in a Carabao Cup clash against Derby County. An EPL debut quickly followed as well as his first pro deal at Anfield. Everyone associated with the club and the Scotland national team have high hopes for the teen for the years to come, including Lennon, who wants to see him develop naturally without too much pressure on his young shoulders.
