Premier League cult hero's son ready to join Liverpool first-team | OneFootball

But if he won't risk the aforementioned trio, who will come in? Liverpool's only other attacking options who are fit and available are Federico Chiesa and Rio Ngumoha.

The chances are that both of them are going to start. However, that's only two players. Liverpool are going to have to play another forward.

For that Slot will have to tap into the academy and right now there is one very obvious name who has made it clear he's ready to join the first-team.

That name is Keyrol Figueroa who scored a hat-trick for Liverpool's U21 side in the mini-derby against Everton at the weekend.

Figueroa is the son of a Premier League cult hero in Maynor Figueroa, who scored some classic goals for Wigan Athletic and Hull City, including one from his own half-way line.

Keyrol has been at Liverpool's academy from a young age and he's been around the U18s and U21s for a long time. He made his debut for the U18s at the age of 15.

Now 19-years-old, he has scored five goals in seven Premier League 2 games for the young Reds, and his goal-scoring prowess shows that he's now ready to join the first-team and make his debut against Palace.

It would be a huge moment for him and a huge moment for Liverpool. Figueroa plays for USA's youth national team and there have been very few players from North America to have made an appearance for the Reds in the club's entire history.

A good performance in that game could be a massive springboard for his career, too.
