"He can play anywhere. When we got the reports on him we spoke to the lads at Liverpool who have worked with him for years in the academy and they said he can play anywhere across the front three, he's a talented lad.

"He's shown that. What I like from him in that position is that he's quick and willing to run behind and play on the shoulder. That creates space for the lads in front of them.

"That's how I like to play. It gives us an opportunity on transition to get in on one pass," Schumacher said to Stoke Sentinel.

KOUMAS COULD EARN LIVERPOOL MILLIONS

If Koumas' start to life at Stoke City is a sign of things to come then Liverpool may well be presented with a cash-in opportunity or a player who could hold great value within their first-team set up for years to come.

The Reds have seen many of their youngsters have very succesful loan moves in recent years which has resulted sales or mainstays within the first-team.

Sepp van den Berg and Fabio Carvalho are the latest two youngsters to depart Merseyside having impressed on loan last year, both moving to Premier League side Brentford.

German side Mainz were eager to bring Van den Berg back to the club after enjoying a very succesful season their last year, while Carvalho's performances at Hull City earnt himself a spot in Liverpool's USA pre season squad.

Harvey Elliott on the other hand has found himself as a key player in Liverpool's squad over recent seasons after having a very impressive season on loan at Blackburn Rovers during the 2021/21 campaign.

If Koumas continues to impress, similar opportunties may arise for the Welshman and Liverpool have a very nice headache to deal with.
