On their preseason tour in Singapore, Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp claims his squad defeated Leicester City with ease today.
The Reds manager was pleased with what he witnessed from his team against the Foxes as several seasoned and younger players put on outstanding performances.
Klopp managed to change his entire XI for most of the second half and that gave him a chance to have a look at a few different things, including certain youngsters.
Of course, a few players didn’t get their chance. But that doesn’t mean they haven’t caught the eye of Klopp over in Singapore.
One of those youngsters is teenager striker Lewis Koumas. And despite not getting any minutes against Leicester today, Klopp has admitted he’s noted Koumas’ development and in particular, his physicality.
“Koumas, very early but physically already there, has all the things you need as a kid to become a real player – the speed, the technique and all that stuff,” Klopp said.
Koumas has been impressing in the youth ranks for Liverpool and at 17, is very much in lline for a big future.
