There’s a ‘really good’ youngster at Liverpool who has just signed a new contract and who could thrive under Arne Slot next season.
Arne Slot, in all likelihood, will become the successor to Jurgen Klopp’s throne at Anfield. There is no question about it, his appointment will raise some eyebrows.
However, it seems like a smart appointment on paper. Slot has an excellent track record and he’s been able to implement an exciting attacking style of play at his previous clubs that is fun and entertaining to watch.
At Liverpool, the expectation will be for Slot to continue doing the same. And that will be music to the ears of the club’s attackers.
Why Keyrol Figueroa will explode under Arne Slot
Keyrol Figueroa is one of those youngsters who will have high hopes for the new season ahead. The youngster is very highly rated in the club’s academy.
He can play anywhere across the front three, and was highlighted as a ‘really good’ player for his versatility.
He has recently signed a new contract with the club as well. Confirmed by the club’s official account on Tuesday.
Considering how well he’s doing in the academy, Figueroa should get an opportunity to shine in the first team under Slot, and he’s the kind of forward who could really thrive in Slot’s system.
Who is Keyrol Figueroa’s father and where did he play in the Premier League?
Like a lot of Liverpool’s academy players, Keyrol is the son of a famous former footballer. His father, Maynor Figueroa was the captain of Honduras at international level.
He also played for the likes of Wigan Athletic and Hull City during his prime years in the Premier League. In total, he spent eight seasons in the Premier League and made over 200 appearances in England’s top flight.
Keyrol will be hoping to follow suit of his father’s achievements, and he’s definitely on the right track with the way he is progressing at Liverpool.
