Ryan Gravenberch could develop into a Liverpool star
In my view, Ryan Gravenberch is a player who could become a star for Liverpool in the coming years.
The 21-year-old has not made a huge impact for Liverpool so far this season. The Netherlands international midfielder is yet to become a regular in the starting lineup.
However, there have been some very positive signs. The Dutchman has a lot of potential. After all, Bayern Munich signed him, and the Bundesliga champions know how to spot a talent.
Gravenberch has made three starts and five substitute appearances in the Premier League and has scored two goals in three UEFA Europa League matches for Liverpool this season.
