According to Lewis Steele’s Liverpool Confidential column, which is all about young striker Will Wright, Liverpool FC are considering a loan in January for the player, believing that it could be time for the next stage of his development: senior football.
The player’s agent was sighted at the AXA Training Centre on Tuesday.
Wright has been in red-hot form as of late, particularly in the UEFA Youth League, where he bagged two consecutive hat-tricks in away matches against LASK and Fenerbahçe. Overall,
he has scored 13 goals in 12 appearances for the club’s U21 and U19 teams, which recently earned him his first call-up to the England U19 national team. Those numbers do suggest that he’s ready for a leap in competition level.
It is said that any decision to loan him out will be made in consultation with senior team head coach Andoni Iraola. It’ll be interesting to see which potential suitors approach Wright before the January window.
