On a day where Jurgen Klopp handed Liverpool’s latest highly-rated young talent a Premier League debut, one former starlet belatedly made their maiden Anfield appearance nearly a decade on from their own first top-flight appearance for the club.
Having joined Liverpool as a 16-year-old back in 2013, Sergi Canos would have dreamed of such an occasion from the first moment he moved to Merseyside, though, in all likelihood, not in the circumstances it eventually came.
Having had to wait nine long years to make his Anfield debut, that day finally came on Sunday as the midfielder, now at Brentford, came on as a 49th minute substitute against his former club.
