TEENAGER STEFAN BAJCETIC SIGNS LONG-TERM LIVERPOOL DEAL
Liverpool teenager Stefan Bajcetic has been rewarded for his first-team breakthrough this season with a new contract.
The 18-year-old has made starts in the Premier League, FA and Carabao Cups and also made his Champions League debut in 10 appearances.
Bajcetic has signed to a new four-year contract, admitting that his rapid rise from under-18s football to the first team squad last season surprised even him.
Manager Jurgen Klopp praised Bajcetic’s progress this season, saying: ‘There was a door – I’m not even sure it was open – but he ran through it and he was really exceptional.’
The Spaniard’s new deal reflects the club’s policy of acquiring and retaining the best young talents, with nine of the club’s last ten permanent signings aged 25 or under. Bajcetic only cost £220,000 when he arrived from Celta Vigo in December 2020.
The hot prospect is thrilled to have committed his long-term future to Liverpool, as he looks to continue breaking into the starting line-up more regularly
