Liverpool: Which loanees have a future at Anfield?

Taiwo Awoniyi

Taiwo Awoniyi

Taiwo Awoniyi joined Liverpool's academy in 2015 and has since been sent out on loan 5 times. Stints at FSV Frankfurt, N.E.C., Gent and two separate loans to his current side Royal Excel Mouscron have seen the 21-year-old try and gain some vital first team experience.

Awoniyi has enjoyed a successful season scoring 9 league goals so far in the Belgian First Division, but the reality is Awoniyi will most likely be shipped out sooner rather than later. Awoniyi will be 22 at the start of next season and he is clearly not Liverpool material.

Kamil Grabara

Manchester City v Liverpool - UEFA Youth League Quarter-Final

Kamil Grabara joined Liverpool from his native Poland in 2016. He has since impressed with the U-23’s, earning himself a regular place at Melwood training with the first team. Earlier this season, the 20-year-old made the matchday squad for the first time, sitting on the bench against Chelsea in the League Cup.

Grabara signed a 5-year contract in December of 2017 and has caught the eye with his great performances at youth level. He was sent out on loan to Danish side Aarhus Gymnastikforening last month as he looks to develop his career. A player who has shown positive early signs, it's hard to say whether he has a future at Liverpool, but it would be highly improbable to find him at the club in a few years time.

Pedro Chirivella

Tranmere Rovers v Liverpool - Pre Season Friendly

Same Liverpool fans may be surprised to hear that Pedro Chirivella is only 21 years old as it feels like he has been around since forever. A consistent feature in the youth sides since his arrival in 2014, Chirivella is also a regular at Melwood. He even has a few first team appearances to his name in the Europa League, FA Cup and has also played once in the Premier League. But Chirivella clearly isn't good enough and his three loan spells in 2 years will most likely result in his permanent move away from the club.
