LIVERPOOL’S new Spanish starlet Stefan Bajcetic is looking like a smart capture – and leaving Manchester United and Chelsea with red faces.
The Kop babe has been on Jurgen Klopp’s bench already.
Manchester United and Chelsea were both admirers of Stefan Bajcetic, who was snapped up by Liverpool
But the reason he joined the club a year ago is down to their willingness to take a chance on landing him as a kid.
Bajcetic joined Liverpool just before the new post Brexit rules came in and it could be one of the most well-timed transfers ever.
Both United and Chelsea had been tracking the top talent for months.
Although both sides decided against pursuing a move because of fears he would not be allowed into the country.
Bajcetic was given a 21 minute runout by Klopp in Liverpool’s 9-0 rout against Bournemouth.
The 17-year-old has also played twice for the U21s this season.
Meanwhile, Liverpool left back James Norris is wanted by Huddersfield Town – after they failed in a deadline deal.
The Kop kid has impressed in the U21s and even trained with the first team last week, so the Terriers were told to wait.
The 19-year-old has played six times for the U21s this season.
