Former Premier League star Lee Hendrie believes Liverpool youngster Owen Beck would be a valuable addition to Championship team Derby County.

Hendrie's verdict comes after reports emerged that Derby manager John Eustace is interested in signing the Liverpool defender for a second time.

Beck spent last season on loan at fellow Championship team Blackburn, having been brought into the squad by Eustace the previous summer.

Now, it's suggested that Derby's boss is eager to reunite with the 22-year-old, who could be poised for another loan spell to further his development.

Beck, a left-back who's recently been linked to boyhood club Wrexham, has made just three senior appearances for Liverpool, all under former boss Jurgen Klopp.

The route to Liverpool's first team is currently crowded, especially after the Reds recently completed a deal for Bournemouth's Milos Kerkez.

With Andy Robertson and Kostas Tsimikas still part of the squad, the likelihood of Beck becoming a regular first-team player under Arne Slot seems slim at present.

Beck has also been linked with Rangers, but Sky Sports pundit Hendrie believes reuniting with Eustace would benefit both the player and Derby.

"When you start bringing in that calibre of player, and Owen Beck is a very good player, from the likes of top clubs in Liverpool, Arsenal, and Chelsea, knowing that they can go in and play, then I think it would be a super signing," he told Football League World.

"It's always good when you have that connection with someone, and that's what Eustace has had.

"He knows the player that he's bringing in, he knows what he's expecting, and I think Derby fans will be over the moon if that deal gets done."

Beck made 25 appearances for Blackburn last season until a hamstring injury brought his season to an abrupt halt in March.
