Arne Slot can consider Calvin Ramsay as an option for Liverpool in the Premier League, with the right-back having impressed on his return to the first team in midweek. Ramsay made his first senior appearance for Liverpool in almost three years on Wednesday night as part of a much-changed side to face Crystal Palace in the Carabao Cup.

Ramsay registered for the Premier League Ramsay’s chances are boosted as he is eligible for the Premier League after being named in Liverpool’s 24-man senior squad for the competition in September. It means Slot could include Ramsay in his squad for the visit of Aston Villa on Saturday night, though it remains to be seen whether he is in contention.

In his press conference after the defeat to Palace at Anfield, the head coach was asked for his verdict on the right-back’s performance. “And I said also afterwards [to Calvin and Kieran Morrison]: ‘If you make your debut after a 3-0 loss, you might feel very, very disappointed – but the two of you can be quite happy with the way you’ve played in your first time here at Anfield’.” While Slot could be forgiven for believing Ramsay had made a belated debut in that game, he had two previous appearances under Jurgen Klopp in 2022.
