On Tuesday, Liverpool confirmed that teenage right-back Conor Bradley had joined League One outfit Bolton Wanderers on loan.
This wasn’t a particularly surprising move, given that the Reds had just sealed a £6.5m deal to sign another player in his position, Calvin Ramsay, from Aberdeen.

He made five appearances for Liverpool’s first team last season as an 18-year-old, featuring in a Champions League group stage game at the San Siro against AC Milan, albeit briefly.
Neco Williams, on the market for £20m according to Sky Sports, has already shown Liverpool that cup appearances and suitable loan moves can significantly boost a player’s value.
On paper, Bradley’s Anfield prospects now look a little bleak, with Trent Alexander-Arnold and Ramsay both ahead of him in the pecking order.
And perhaps most impressively, he’s already earned seven senior caps for his country, advancing straight from the Under-17s to the senior set-up.
But it’s worth remembering, amidst the excitement around the Ramsay signing, just how talented Bradley is in his own right.
