A number of Liverpool fans have been hailing the quality of youngster Kaide Gordon following an eye-catching performance in a training match.
The Reds acquired the services of the teenager last month, snapping him up from Derby County and adding him to the club’s academy.
A highly-rated young English prospect, Gordon is considered one of the most exciting players in the country in his age group, and became Derby’s fourth-youngest player of all time earlier in the season.
It appears as though the 16-year-old has taken little time making an impression at Liverpool as he looks to eventually become a first team star at Anfield.

The midfielder took part in an internal game at the AXA Training Centre on Saturday alongside a number of first team players including Adrian and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.
His quality was plain to see in a video shared on the club’s official Twitter account, playing a key role in one of Ben Woodburn’s three goals on the day.
