Sepp van den Berg was the first arrival and the 17-year-old has made a couple of appearances for the Reds in pre-season.

The Dutch centre-back is one for the future and Liverpool also caught hold of Harvey Elliott from Fulham.

The English winger made his debut against Napoli and was one of our best players in the loss.

Salazar would face a lot of competition should he join the Reds, with Rhian Brewster set to feature for the first-team.

The youth setup also features Bobby Duncan and Paul Glatzel in the ranks. The pair played for the Liverpool senior side during this pre-season, and big things are expected from the duo in the future.
