It is often the ultimate pub quiz question. Who is the youngest player to ever play for Liverpool? Well, the answer is Jerome Sinclair. Yes, remember him?
His career began at West Bromwich Albion before he moved to Liverpool at the age of 14. Then, aged just 16 years and 6 days, he came off the bench to make his senior Reds debut, replacing fellow teenager Samed Yesil in a 2-1 win over Albion in the League Cup on September 26, 2012.
Injury curtailed a season thereafter, but he was soon back with a bang, firing in the goals for Liverpool's youth teams at various age levels. That impressive form led to the then Reds boss Brendan Rodgers claiming the Anfield club had a 'bright' future ahead of them thanks to Academy stars like Sinclair.
