It takes a special type of player to break into Liverpool's first team, but supporters could yet see some new faces this season.
With the pathway of success from Kirkby to Anfield already paved by the likes of Trent Alexander-Arnold and Curtis Jones, evidence exists that Jurgen Klopp is more than prepared to give youth a chance if the highest of standards can be met.
Opportunities for the Reds' young guns may have been made harder by the acquisition of bright young talent from elsewhere, like Harvey Elliott and Fabio Carvalho, but that doesn't mean the door of Anfield hope has been closed on other Academy prospects. Bobby Clark and Stefan Bajcetic have already proven that budding stars can take the next step by making their first team debuts.
