Klopp Persuades Liverpool Starlet To Stay At Anfield, Five-Year Deal Signed

Liverpool have agreed a professional contract with rising star Rhain Brewster, ending fears the 18-year-old could quit Anfield.

The Daily Mirror report that Brewster has agreed a new five-year deal to stay at Liverpool.

Per the source, there were fears that Borussia Monchengladbach could sign him and interest from Dortmund and Leipzig.

The new agreement will keep the youngster at Liverpool until 2023.

Reds boss Jurgen Klopp had wanted to keep Brewster at the club and did promote him to the first-team squad earlier this season.

Injury ruled the Reds starlet out of the team for much of the campaign.

Klopp reportedly has faith in the young forward who will be a permanent member of the first-team next season.

A source close to the player has revealed to Turkish-Football that the Reds wonder-kid has a Turkish mother and has the option to represent the Crescent-Stars at senior level.

Brewster was involved in a controversial incident this season.

The youngster said he was racially abused in a Uefa Youth League game against Spartak Moscow.

The rising star stated he was abused by Spartak Moscow youth side captain Leonid Mironov in the Reds win over Spartak at Prenton Park in December.

European football’s governing body UEFA said it could find no conclusive evidence after investigating the allegations.

A Uefa statement said: “After concluding his investigation, the inspector found no evidence to corroborate the allegations, which he believed were made in good faith by Rhian Brewster.

“Therefore, the Uefa control, ethics and disciplinary body, following the recommendation of the inspector, established there was no evidence that would legally support sanctioning Leonid Mironov and thus decided to close the disciplinary proceedings.”
