Sources close to Anfield have confirmed that multiple clubs have shown interest in securing a temporary deal for Morton. Liverpool, keen on bolstering their midfield options, are reportedly open to letting the youngster head out on loan.
Blackburn’s manager, John Dahl Tomasson, has been vocal about his admiration for Morton. Whether the Lancashire club will make a move to get him back at Ewood Park remains a topic of speculation.
KLOPP’S YOUNG PRODIGY
With nine senior appearances for Liverpool, including two in the Premier League, Morton’s potential is evident. His most notable performance came in December 2021 against Tottenham Hotspur. Jurgen Klopp, Liverpool’s manager, didn’t hesitate to start him amidst a midfield injury dilemma.
Following that match, Klopp was full of praise for Morton, highlighting his versatility and potential in the midfield. The German tactician noted Morton’s adaptability, stating that while he’s been training as a No. 8, he can effortlessly fit into a controlling No. 6 role when needed.
