Stefan Bajcetic’s absence from first-team football for almost all of last season has left Liverpool fans eagerly anticipating his return.
However, according to DAVEOCKOP, there’s an update: “Stefan Bajcetic has been informed he will be allowed to leave on loan.”
If this report is accurate, it would be a major surprise for the 19-year-old to leave Anfield this season, especially considering the limited options available in his position.
Currently, Liverpool has Bajcetic, Wataru Endo, and Tyler Morton as the primary choices for the No.6 role, though other midfielders could fill in if needed.
This could explain the intense links with Martin Zubimendi, as it’s been suggested that Arne Slot wants additional depth in this area.
If a new player is brought in and Endo stays, it might hinder Bajcetic’s immediate development.
A loan move could provide Bajcetic with an opportunity to prove his fitness and secure consistent senior football elsewhere, though many fans were hoping to see his progress in a Liverpool shirt.
Whether this turns out to be true remains to be seen, but it would be a bold decision by the new head coach.
