Liverpool are set to be without their “best player” Stefan Bajcetic for the rest of the season in the latest bitter blow to their top-four hopes.
There haven't been too many highlights for the Reds this term, having been knocked out of all cup competitions and well out of the title picture. But Bajcetic, 18, has been the diamond in a rough season for his more experienced teammates.
Bajcetic has enjoyed a rapid rise from playing in the under 18s, to becoming a regular within Jurgen Klopp’s midfield in less than 12 months. His youthful exuberance has often shown up his senior colleagues in a position group Klopp has to refresh this summer.
