Writing on X, Wathland provided a positive update regarding the highly-rated Abe, saying: “Despite huge offers elsewhere, Liverpool remain confident of securing Joshua Abe on a long-term deal.” Can Josh Abe make a Rio Ngumoha-like leap at Liverpool? Still only 15 years of age, Abe is a special talent who is already making waves at Liverpool’s academy, being lauded by Under-18s manager Simon Wiles: “You can see him growing with confidence and the quality that he’s got.

He’s got a real knack for coming inside and hitting the back of the net. He’s a real talent and it’s really exciting working with him.

Josh is in a really good place.” Meanwhile, one of Abe’s former coaches has claimed that “there’s not a club in this country who wouldn’t want” to sign the winger, and he has already scored four goals in eight caps for England’s Under-16s. The fact that so many clubs are coming in for him speaks volumes about how high Abe’s long-term ceiling is, and if he can avoid serious injuries and remain as professional as possible, the sky is the limit for him at Liverpool.
