The trio's surname will have been familiar to those who grew up watching Premier League football in the 1990s and 2000s, with their fathers being household names in British football.

And there are even more youngsters with famous fathers who are hoping to break into the first team in the club's academy this season as well.

Who is Prince Kobe Cisse?

Prince Kobe Cisse is the son of Djibril Cisse, an iconic forward who spent several years at Liverpool and played a key role in helping the Reds lift the Champions League during that famous comeback against AC Milan at Istanbul.

Since then Cisse has represented Liverpool's Legend team several times and has retired from the game.

It's now his sons who are taking on the baton with his eldest Cassius, currently being at Notts County.

Meanwhile, his youngest is Kobe, who is currently in Liverpool's U18 team and has made four appearances in the U18 Premier League this season.

Kobe usually plays as a forward just like his father but he can also play out wide and in midfield, too.

Prince Kobe Cisse earns major international call-up and could write history

Unlike his father, though, Kobe, has elected to play for Wales rather than France, with the youngster being eligible to represent the Welsh through his mother.

Kobe has played for Wales at U15, U16 and U17 level so far and he's now set to face his biggest moment on the international stage yet.

The Liverpool youngster was called-up to Wales' U17 squad for their U17 Euro qualifiers against Norway, Italy and San Marino as per the Welsh FA's official website.

Wales hadn't qualified for a major men's youth international tournament since 1981 until they managed to get to the U17 Euros both in 2023 and 2024.

Now Cisse can make it three in a row and write himself in the history books by qualifying Wales to the competition which is taking place in Albania next year.
