Liverpool youth coach Marc Bridge-Wilkinson has lauded Stefan Bajcetic’s attitude and potential after the teenager made his debut in Saturday’s 9-0 win against Bournemouth - adding that there is ‘a lot more to come’.
The Spaniard came on for Jordan Henderson in the 70th minute at Anfield last weekend, becoming the youngest non-English player to feature for the Reds at 17 years and 309 days, with Bobby Clark also making his debut the same day.
Originally brought in as a centre-back from Celta Vigo, the teenager’s composure in possession and positional intelligence allowed those in charge of youth development to explore a new midfield role. And one of those coaches - under-18s boss Bridge-Wilkinson - has lifted the lid on their decision to move the young talent further forward and predicted that Reds fans will see plenty more in the future.
