It has been a stellar season as far as Liverpool’s academy has been concerned.
All too often left a little under-utilised in the recent past, the Reds youth teams have been plundered by Jurgen Klopp in 2023/24.
Unfortunately, Klopp will not be the manager who sees the likes of Jarell Quansah, Conor Bradley and Jayden Danns flourish with Liverpool.
However, he will always be the one who got the ball rolling at Anfield for those three youngsters, as well as a whole host of others.
Arne Slot is set to be the coach to take over Liverpool’s gems.
And according to former Man United goalkeeper Ben Foster, Slot has one academy star in particular to watch out for.

Klopp’s use of Liverpool’s academy this season has been unprecedented.
As Liverpool continue to look for a new centre-back signing they shouldn’t forget about the 21-year-old.

But Quansah aside, Bradley has been the one who has excited supporters the most.
The 20-year-old is as all-action as they come.
And picking a dream team of young players for the Premier League’s official YouTube channel, Foster has hailed Bradley’s ability to seamlessly step into the Liverpool first-team.
“I think we’ve got to give Conor Bradley some love, coming into that Liverpool squad, straight into the team,” raved the pundit.
Although he’s missed the last four matches, he had been expected to be back fit by May.
We’ll have to wait and see whether the right-back will be in the squad for Liverpool’s final three games under Klopp.
Moving forward, it’s clear that Bradley has a big future at the club.
Just how big that will be could depend on how Slot plans to use Alexander-Arnold.
If the Dutch coach fancies Trent as a central midfielder, then the right-back spot will open up for Bradley.
