Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has always been fond of giving young players a chance in the Reds senior setup.

Over the past few years, the likes of Trent Alexander-Arnold, Curtis Jones, Neco Williams and Rhys Williams have all broken into the Liverpool team.

In addition, Klopp often calls Liverpool academy players up to first-team training to give them a chance of being in the senior fold.

One player who has been called up to train alongside the first-teamers at Kirkby has been dubbed “the reincarnation of Coutinho” and “the best” Liverpool youngster since Alexander-Arnold.

That player is Mateusz Musialowski, an 18-year-old attacking prodigy who’s certainly one to watch.

Musialowski joined the Liverpool academy from Polish outfit Lodz in August 2020.

He has made 37 age-level appearances for the Reds, registering an impressive 15 goals and three assists.

Last season, Musialowski registered 12 goals and three assists from 25 Under-18 appearances.

Liverpool rewarded the Poland youth international by promoting him to the Under-23s this term.

He has made seven Premier League 2 appearances and has scored three goals, testament to his talent and progress he’s made so far.

Although Musialowski is yet to make his senior Reds debut, surely that won’t be too far away now.

Here is what some Liverpool fans have previously said about him:
