Stefan Bajcetic is his name.
Fresh off signing 15-year-old defender/midfielder Calum Scanlon from
Birmingham City’s academy, Liverpool
FC have their sights set on another youngster. According to the
Liverpool Echo, the club have begun talks with
Celta Vigo. The player joined Celta’s youth set-up three years ago,
and has gradually risen up their ranks, catching the eye of
Liverpool’s scouting team.
Manchester United is reportedly also
interested, but Liverpool are confident of getting a deal done.
Their belief is that they can offer a pathway to the first team for
their young signings – especially with academy graduates like Trent
Alexander-Arnold, Curtis Jones, and Neco Williams all playing
significant minutes this campaign for the champions.

A potential stumbling block is that of the impending post-Brexit
transfer rules. English teams clubs will be unable to sign overseas
players under the age of 18 once the UK officially leaves the EU at
the end of this year. This gives the club a very tiny window of
just about a week to wrap the deal up. Fingers crossed.
