Wrexham could get the green light to sign a promising Liverpool youngster on loan as the Premier League title winners edge closer to a £40million deal.

The Red Dragons, who recently secured promotion to the Championship, are reportedly keen on snapping up Liverpool left-back Owen Beck.

The 22-year-old defender, who was born in Wrexham, impressed on loan at Blackburn Rovers in the second tier this season.



Beck, who is the great nephew of former Liverpool and Wrexham striker Ian Rush, established himself as Rovers' first-choice left-back until an unfortunate injury curtailed his progress.

The Wales under-21 international made 26 appearances for Blackburn in their quest for a play-off position, but a hamstring issue limited him to just one game after early February.

Wrexham, owned by Hollywood stars Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, secured their third consecutive promotion in April and are now setting their sights on Beck to strengthen their squad.

According to Liverpool.com, Beck's potential loan move could be made possible by Liverpool securing Milos Kerkez from Bournemouth.

Meanwhile, Beck has shown his talent during several recent loan stints, particularly impressing at Dundee.

However, Beck's earlier loan experiences at Famalicao and Bolton Wanderers were less fruitful, failing to make an appearance for the former and featuring only nine times for the latter.

Reflecting on Beck's journey, former Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp said in January 2024: "We were always pretty positive about Owen, but then he had two really difficult loan spells [at Famalicao and Bolton].

"It was a surprise that it didn't work out because of what we thought about Owen, but that's how it is with young boys.
