Nyoni is a versatile talent, who can play in multiple offensive and midfield positions, however, primarily, he is a central attacking midfielder.

He mainly featured in the No. 10 role but also played in the central midfield, as a left winger and even as a center forward.

Jurgen Klopp is renowned for promoting young and talented starlets to the first team and we have seen the likes of Trent, Jones, Bajcetic, Elliott and more impress for the senior squad.

If Trey Nyoni is good enough, he will eventually get his chance in the first team at Anfield.
