Liverpool might just be nurturing its own version of Sergio Busquets in 20 year old Stefan Bajcetic, who's been drawing parallels to the Barcelona maestro during his loan spell at Las Palmas.

This isn't the first time Bajcetic has been likened to Busquets; back in 2023, Alex Otero, ex-academy director at Celta Vigo, mentioned to the Liverpool Echo: "He reminds me of Sergio Busquets, the best Busquets of many years ago.

"He would only play in the midfield and the other players attacked, but Stefan has other qualities different to Busquets; he likes to advance into the opposition box and support attacks.

If he fulfils his potential, [he] could definitely, definitely play for us in the future
