Players like
Harvey Elliott
may find renewed opportunities under his leadership, along with
James McConnell
and
Trey Nyoni
, who will be eager to impress.
Among the returning players is expected to be
Stefan Bajcetic
.
Bajcetic’s Battle for Preseason Fitness
The 21-year-old has not featured for the Liverpool
first team
in over two years due to various loan spells and injury setbacks.
He is expected to be fit for the upcoming preseason, which is an added advantage given that many team contenders are away at the FIFA World Cup.
However, Bajcetic, who joined from
Celta Vigo
in 2020,
is reportedly facing a potential exit
. According to David Lynch of Anfield Index, the midfielder has missed significant playing time, which may hinder his involvement in first-team activities.

David Lynch on Bajcetic’s Future
Lynch states, “I envision a loan or permanent transfer for Stefan this summer. A permanent move is certainly possible since he has been away from the game for too long. Liverpool might not see him reaching the levels they aspire for.”
“If there isn’t much interest in a permanent deal, they might consider a loan to help him regain form and create future opportunities for transfer.”
“I do not expect him to be involved with the
first team
at all.”
