Conor Bradley will allegedly be used by Liverpool’s first team whenever he returns to full health, according to Jurgen Klopp.
The Liverpool Echo reports that the Anfield manager is looking forward to the Northern Ireland international’s return, since Bradley is presently sidelined with a preseason injury.
The 20-year-old right-back had been expected to serve as Trent Alexander-Arnold’s back-up going into this season, but injuries have limited Bradley to a spectator role.
Bradley’s return will be a huge advantage for Liverpool because Klopp is struggling to find a suitable right-back replacement for the 24-year-old.
And the Reds’ manager appears to be looking forward to Bradley’s comeback because Klopp has already made provisions for the defender’s undetermined comeback.
Bradley has all he needs to play second fiddle to Alexander-Arnold in defence, and the sooner the teenager recovers, the better, according to Manchester United defender Jonny Evans.
Bradley must be fully fit for Liverpool by Klopp.
Because of Bradley’s immense talent, Klopp understandably wants the defender to be fully recovered as soon as possible.
The 20-year-old is a fantastic talent and has already earned a full international cap for Northern Ireland. Bradley can greatly improve and give depth to Liverpool’s defensive unit.
The young man’s injury has come at the worst possible time, so the sooner Bradley returns, the sooner the defender can go to work on his promising progression as a Liverpool player.
