Liverpool has a large number of players preparing for a future in the club, and one is already playing at the highest level on a regular basis.
Rhian Brewster was loaned to Swansea City in January to gain regular experience in the first team and took the opportunity with both hands.
The 20-year-old worked for the Swans on Wednesday evening when they secured a place in the play-offs under dramatic circumstances.
There had to be a six-goal strike with Nottingham Forest for Swansea to sneak into the top 6 – and that was exactly what happened with a 4-1 win over Reading combined with a 1-4 loss to Stoke for Forest.
Brewster was again on the Swans’ game report and scored a wonderful solo goal from a distance that flew past the goalkeeper in no time.
The loaned Reds striker’s goal brought Swansea into the top 6, and now the club has a chance to secure promotion to the Premier League.
Brewster’s goal was his 10th during his loan stay in South Wales, which achieved the feat in 20 league games.

“I came here to try to play a lot of games and score a lot for Swansea,” said Brewster after signing in January.
“It is a great club. I’ve watched them for ages – especially when they were in the Premier League. Hopefully I can help them get back where they belong.
“Right now, Swansea is the best team for me to borrow. I want to help Swansea get promoted. “
Now that the goal of double-digit numbers for both goals and play-offs, the next challenge for the striker is the most difficult of all – promotion.
The play-offs are ahead of Brewster and Swansea, who face Brentford, who have impressed themselves this season.
This gives the Red striker more opportunities to show off his talents.
Jürgen Klopp will have been keeping an eye on Brewster since he moved to South Wales in January, and with the Premier League season almost over, attention will only increase.
There has been a lot of talk about Liverpool’s need to attack reinforcements in the transfer market, but Brewster makes the Anfield hierarchy think about whether it is right to spend money on new players.
