Liverpool were told to sign France World Cup final star Theo Hernandez as a youngster by their former scout Jonathan Woodgate.
Hernandez has been one Les Bleus' standout performers in Qatar as Didier Deschamps' side chase a second successive World Cup triumph. Since replacing his older brother Lucas in France's opening contest in the Middle East, the AC Milan left-back hasn't looked back and looks a shoo-in to be named in the team of the tournament.
Opening the scoring in Wednesday's 2-0 semi-final success over Morocco, Hernandez has shone on the biggest stage of them all over the past month, advertising his excellent technical ability married with electric pace. While he may still struggle to get into Liverpool's team given how good Andy Robertson is, he could well have been part of Jurgen Klopp's squad by now.
