Liverpool have moved to hand Tom Hill his first professional contract, as confirmed on the club’s official website.

Naturally a midfielder, he has caught the eye this season with a string of fine performances for the under-18s.

He made his debut for the youth team in August, scoring twice against Blackburn Rovers.

Despite his tender years he has since stepped up and played in Neil Critchley’s under-23 team.

Hill’s remarkable breakthrough campaign has also seen him make his first-team debut.

He played the full 90 minutes of a 5-0 defeat to Aston Villa during the Carabao Cup quarter-final.

Hill will probably continue his progress with both the under-18 and under-23 teams having signed his first professional deal.

In total the attack-minded player has scored six times this season and has played in a number of positions.

Liverpool fans appear delighted with this news and have taken to Twitter to congratulate the young performer.

Hill has been at Liverpool since the age of six and will now hope to keep defying his tender years.

Following the announcement of his new deal, Liverpool fans were quick to rave about the youngster.

Here is a selection of tweets from the club’s supporters after the announcement regarding Hill:
