Young midfielder Tyler Morton has been called up by Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp to train with the first team during preseason.

As he prepares for the upcoming season, Morton shared a photo of himself with the manager on Instagram.

The season ahead at Anfield promises to be monumental as Jurgen Klopp attempts to lead Liverpool back into the Champions League.

Although performances significantly improved at the conclusion of the season, missing out on the top four last year was a severe blow.

Liverpool has already made a few moves in the transfer market to address some of the problems from the previous campaign.

Alexis Mac Allister has arrived from Brighton and should slot nicely into midfield.

Hungarian captain Dominik Szoboszlai is a really exciting talent too and could play in a variety of attacking positions or as a central playmaker.

One player who might be slightly concerned about the number of players being recruited in midfield is Tyler Morton.

The 20-year-old spent last season out on loan with Blackburn Rovers and had a very strong campaign.

Klopp has now called Morton up to first-team training and will have to quickly decide his plans for the youngster ahead of next season.

Morton posted a picture of himself with Klopp on his Instagram story alongside the caption, “Back to it.”

Klopp has made it clear he’s a big fan of the young midfielder.

Morton has already played in the Champions League for Liverpool and after their 2-0 win against AC Milan in 2021, Klopp said: “I don’t want to make his life any more complicated than it is already, playing at such a young age for a club like Liverpool in a game like this with a performance like this.

“I think we should all calm down but it was really good tonight and a big pleasure to watch the boy playing.

“The football brain he showed tonight was absolutely exceptional.”

Despite the call-up to first-team training, it’s hard to see where Morton fits into Klopp’s plans this season.

He must work to secure playing time for Curtis Jones, Harvey Elliott, and Stefan Bajcetic in addition to the senior players he has at his disposal.

While finding Morton another loan move would make sense, he finally needs to locate a team that will consistently start him.

It remains to be seen if Liverpool will be the location of it.
