Leighton Clarkson used to share a house with new Liverpool sensation Stefan Bajcetic. Now he hopes a successful loan stint at Aberdeen will see him move in with Bajcetic again as part of the Reds' first-team squad next season.
The Spanish Under-21 ace has become a fixture in Jurgen Klopp’s Anfield engine room in recent weeks. And Clarkson admits seeing the 18-year-old make his mark gives him and all the other academy stars hope at Liverpool. He said: “Stefan was two or three years below me. I remember when they first signed him, he was in my house-parents with me.
“We were quite close there. There were always a few boys living in the house. At first he was shy and didn’t know a lot of English. But he’s settled in very well. Over the last few years he’s obviously learned a lot. You listen to his interviews and he sounds a bit Scouse now!
