Liverpool wonderkid is coming to join Arne Slot's first team, and he's special
Arne Slot is starting to unleash the abundance of talent in Liverpool's academy and there's one more who could join his first team soon.
We've seen the Liverpool head coach give the likes of Trey Nyoni and Jayden Danns a handful of opportunities. More recently, it was Rio Ngumoha who was given his chance in the first team.

They've all delivered as well. Danns scored against Accrington, Nyoni has been sublime every time he has come one and Ngumoha was very lively on his debut as well.
They are just three of an extremely talented bunch at Anfield. There's more youngsters coming from the ranks, including a special talent Liverpool poached from Manchester United of all places.
Why Kieran Morrison is ready for Liverpool first team chance
There's been one outstanding player in Liverpool's U21 team this season. That player is Kieran Morrison who joined the Reds from Manchester United back at U14 level.
Since then he has featured in 57 games at academy level scoring 17 goals and registering nine assists.
This season he is currently the player with the most goal contributions for the U21 side (6) scoring some important goals and registering important assists along the way.
Last season, Morrison was the stand out player for the club at U18 level. He made 16 goal contributions in all competitions which was the joint highest alongside Jayden Danns.
The latter has obviously gotten a lot of minutes in the first team on the back of his impressive performances.
Morrison meanwhile has missed out on first team chances. But it's only a matter of time.
He's a special talent who can play in various different roles across the front three. He's been playing as a right-winger mostly and he's very good at manipulating his opponents and putting the ball into the back of the net.
Morrison showcased that in a rare footage released by Liverpool of the club's U21 training session in a finishing drill.
Games are coming up thick and fast now for the next few weeks for Liverpool. There's Champions League, Premier League, League Cup and FA Cup action for Slot to contend with.
That's going to take a toll and it's going to mean he needs to tinker his squad.
It could present a golden opportunity for a special talent like Morrison to make his mark in the first team.
He's shown enough at academy level to be given a chance and now he's ready to be unleashed at senior level, possibly against Plymouth next month.
