Watch Ben Doak leave Bayern Munich stars in the dust as Liverpool wonderkid wows Jurgen Klopp again

Ben Doak is fast becoming one of the hottest prospects in European football and continues to wow Liverpool in pre-season.

The former Celtic kid made the move to Anfield in 2022 for a fee of around £600,000 as Jurgen Klopp handed the 17-year-old major votes of confidence including five senior appearances in the Premier League last campaign.

And Klopp's men continued their preparations for the season ahead with a thrilling 4-3 defeat to Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich, with former Celtic stalwart and new Reds captain Virgil Van Dijk on target. But it was speedy winger Doak that caught the eye once again, as he left the likes of Munich defender Bouna Sarr on his backside on more than one occasion after some incredible play on the flanks.

The skills on show had Liverpool fans calling for him to start when the Premier League season kicks off this month, as Klopp previously noted of the Anfield young contingent: “Ben Doak, oh my God, it’s much fun to watch these kids. Calum I’ve known him only nine days, he was injured before and now he was there. Koumas came on, Conor Bradley really good.

Doak said when quizzed on his pre-season: "It just feels really good to score in front of all the fans. I’m obviously trying to do my best and improve us as well. It feels night and day from this
