Liverpool have a THIRD Hungarian and it’s not Milos Kerkez | OneFootball

Four years ago, Liverpool brought in Patrik and Erik Farkas to the academy.

The older of the two brothers, Patrik, spent just around two years at Liverpool and has become a Hungarian youth international and currently plays for Blackburn Rovers, where he is highly regarded.

Meanwhile, Erik, who rejected Manchester City and Manchester United to join the Reds continues to play for the club's academy and represents the U16 side.

The youngster is now 15-years-old and while he is eligible to play for Hungary, he has recently made his debut for England's U16 national team.

Erik even scored on just his third appearance for the young Three Lions but despite his brilliance, Hungary hope that he will represent the nation at senior level.

The Hungarian-born youngster is regarded as one of the most promising young talents in the academy at Liverpool.

Coaches have likened him to Ballon d'Or winner Luka Modric for his exquisite technical ability and for his vision on the pitch.

The youngster has already attracted the attention of senior figures at the club, who have closely observed him in training sessions and have been blown away by his performances.

Szoboszlai is also known as an admirer of the young Hungarian talent.

Predominantly an attacking midfielder, Erik can also play as a holding midfielder and as a box-to-box no.8.

He has been playing for the club's U15 and U16 teams last season and is seen as an ideal fit for Arne Slot's style of football in the long-term.

In the short-term, it is only a matter of time until he makes the next step up to the U18 side.
