Rhian Brewster
Rhian Brewster was at Chelsea before he moved to Liverpool in 2014

Liverpool forward Rhian Brewster has signed a new five-year contract with the club.

The 18-year-old has yet to make his competitive senior debut and is recovering from an ankle ligament injury suffered in January.

"I'm looking forward to getting back fit and making some appearances," he told Liverpool's website.external-link

Brewster helped England win the Under-17 World Cup last October, scoring eight times during the tournament.

He scored hat-tricks in the quarter-final against the United States and in England's semi-final against Brazil.

Brewster also scored in the 5-2 win over Spain in the final in India.

    Hope Liverpool give him a chance for the sake of the future England team

    Watching him in the under 17 World Cup he looks the real deal. He’s also at the right club to develop as Klopp gets the very best out of attacking talent.

    Brewster and Foden are special players from u17. You will definitely be seeing more of them in prem.

    Mourinho is destroying Rashford who could be England's Mbappe. I hope Klopp handles Brewster better. Rashford get out of Man U NOW

    @Chelmsford 123 ......
    Shame a big club didn't come in for him ??
    At least give us a clue as to who these big clubs are ??
    I'm struggling as to why he extended his contract I mean why go to a big club when you can just play for a club that's won 18 league titles 5 European cups 7 fa cups 8 league titles 3 eufa cups .......
    Oh and the Lancashire league 1892 -93 😉

    Happy with this. Unlike Solanke, I think this lad has a future at Liverpool - I'm sure he'd have ended the season with more than one paltry goal if he'd have been afforded the game time Solanke and Ings got, I don't dislike either, but they're pretty much a waste of squad space better suited to a mid table squad whereas Brewster looks to be the real deal. Kent, Wilson and him, 3 for the future.

    Has shown great potential prior to his injuries. Let's hope he can fulfil his potential and go on the star for Liverpool and England. The new contract should give him plenty of motivation during his rehabilitation.

    You said “They must be the most underachieving club around , hated by millions and yet still get the attention.”

    You seem to give plenty of attention to Liverpool yourself.

    By the way quite a few people love Liverpool too

    Pleased with this :)

    He’s better than Rashford and Lingard

  • Comment posted by H squared, at 08:30 18 Jul 2018

    Whilst I agree Liverpool get more than their fair share of threads, a top club signing up a home talent is surely relevant in light of recent events and something which many on here moan about when these clubs sign “another overpaid foreign journeyman”. Let’s hope he gets game time

    Dear Liverpool,

    Please send this player on a 2 year loan to Glasgow Rangers.

    Yours sincerely

    Steven Gerrard

    Brilliant! pretty much sums up a vast majority of HYS posters

    pathetic juveniles (or at least act like it) this guy Brewster is probably more mature than most & he's barely out of school age

    They keep talking about the English future, well with the likes of Brewster and his fellow age cup winners, TA Arnold, Rashford's, RL Cheeks etc...there's a very young core with talent..nurture it

    When is the FA going to make cumpolsary quotas on club squads being minimum 50% English?

    Never.
    Because it's illegal under EU law.

    After Brexit,
    who knows ?

    I've only seen this kid representing England in the youth tournaments, which is not a lot but probably still much more than many posters on here! I was impressed with the lad but breaking onto the Liverpool first team will obviously be tough. Maybe a short loan spell away at a mid table championship team will do him good and go from there. If he's good enough, Klopp will give him his chance

    33) Didn't read the article. Scrolled straight down here for a dig at Liverpool and an 18 year old kid trying to make his way in the world.

    Brewster is a great prospect for us. end him on loan to Gerrard to continue his development, to get him ready for jurgen next year.

    ‘...clubs like Liverpool aren’t interested in bringing youngsters through...’

    You’re talking sh%te man, especially considering the amount of dosh they’re putting into their Academy redevelopment (which like anything else football related you probably wouldn’t know anything about). Back to your Playstation now, there’s a good chap’

    You understand he moved up to the first team squad after the U17 World Cup and than badly broke his ankle, right?

  • Comment posted by stenru, at 07:07 18 Jul 2018

    Excellent news. Liverpool need to give him a run in the cup team before stepping him up to the first team proper when appropriate. A great prospect for the future and English too.
