Liverpool won their first friendly of pre-season and Trey Nyoni shone for Arne Slot's side - with former Reds boss Jurgen Klopp having already showered the youngster in praise
Former Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has already told Arne Slot not to forget about Trey Nyoni after the youngster shone in the 1-0 friendly win over Real Betis. The 17-year-old was one of the youth players to be handed an opportunity by Slot as senior players remain absent following their involvement in the Copa America and European Championships. Nyoni made his debut under Klopp last season and has put in a strong case for more minutes under the new manager.
' Slot also praised Nyoni's display after the game with Betis. 'I think he did really well today but it was only an hour,' he said. 'He was one of the reasons why we scored the goal, because he turned really quickly and a spot-on pass in between the lines. And he was also involved in the biggest chance in the second half. 'So he did well. But he's just turned 17 and his body has to grow, and we are really careful with him.
