He is another real talent ready to make an impact.Nyoni played a handful of games for Liverpool under Arne Slot, but he should be capable of building on that in 2026/27, unless he goes out on loan to get even more experience.Trey Nyoni of Liverpool during a training session at AXA Training Centre(Image: Nick Taylor/Liverpool FC via Getty Images)Full of poise in possession and with a Ryan Gravenberch-like elegance when he dribbles forward with the ball, Nyoni spoke recently about wanting to leave an impression this summer.He is exactly the kind of age and profile of player that Iraola regularly developed at Bournemouth, so Nyoni will be hoping that pattern can continue in the next few months.Will WrightJayden Danns has been managing his fitness again recently, and Hugo Ekitike is out for the long-term still with the Achilles injury that ended his debut season at Liverpool prematurely.There is a spot up for grabs at number nine, as a result, and Will Wright is probably the most likely of the youngsters to be able to stake a claim at taking it.Will Wright is hoping to break into the starting XI(Image: Nick Taylor/Liverpool FC via Getty Images)Wright arrived last summer having had senior experience before at Salford City.

Last season, he picked up a couple of injuries but really impressed for the Reds' U21s side when he was fit.Still only 18, he is tall, quite quick, and a good finisher. Academy staff have been impressed by his development so far, and Iraola will soon get a close-up look with Alexander Isak currently on holiday.Josh AbeHaving only just turned 16, young forward Josh Abe was the subject of lots of interest across the course of last season.

Chelsea and Manchester City were among the clubs trying to sign him.Instead, though, he saw Liverpool as the right next step for his development. Given he is so young, Liverpool will be very careful with Abe.
