Slot is then likely to promote a new crop of players, some of whom have not been on the radar at all up until this point.

Some youngsters are understood to be in line to make the trip to Japan and Hong Kong this summer as Slot decides whether any are ready for a more permanent role in the first-team.

It remains to be seen exactly which players Slot has his eye on from the academy.

However, sources have indicated that several players who are not being talked about as being close to the first-team could suddenly find themselves involved.

Liverpool have put plenty of hard work into their academy over the last decade and are confident they have players who can step into the first-team.

Success stories such as Conor Bradley and Jarell Quansah have given confidence around the club that the next breakthrough is not far away.

Slot is understood to feel the same way as he prepares to take a more active role in overseeing the development of Liverpool’s young starlets.
