Liverpool head coach Jurgen Klopp has hailed Rhian Brewster after he bagged two goals in 6-0 win over Tranmere in their pre-season opener.
The 19-year-old striker is highly-rated at Anfield but his path to the first team stalled after a serious injury layoff that kept him out for 18 months.
However, in the pre-season opener Brewster proved he is ready to play and nw Klopp has admitted it could be Brewster's time to shine.
The Liverpool boss said: "100 per cent [it is a big season] but it depends on him as well. "Divock Origi stays which is good news, Bobby Firmino is still there.
"Rhian Brewster is a top striker, he is a top talent and I have told him already that he has an important role this year but how important depends on him. We will see.
"He has to play different positions as well - the centre, wing is possible I think, we will see how we line up, but there will be opportunities for him. I am sure."
Brewster was then replaced at the half as Klopp made 11 changes to his line-up.
