A Liverpool player tipped by Jurgen Klopp to be a "big talent" just over two years ago finds himself at a career crossroads.
Billy Koumetio was hailed by Klopp when he was handed his first professional contract by the Reds in the summer of 2020. After spending two years around the senior squad at Anfield, the defender was sent to Austria Wien on loan in the summer.
While it was meant to be a season-long loan deal, it appears increasingly likely he will return to Merseyside this month instead. The Frenchman has made just five Austrian Bundesliga appearances all season, making the matchday squad just seven times in total.
