Liverpool tie down promising youngster Ben Doak to new contract.
Doak, who joined from Celtic last summer, has excelled as part of the Liverpool academy and caught the eye during pre-season when he was drafted into Jurgen Klopp's travelling group.
Since then, the 17-year-old has managed 13 minutes in the Premier League and has been an unused substitute in a further three of Liverpool's games as he continues to impress both Klopp and fans alike.
As a reward for his progress, Liverpool confirmed on their official website that Doak had inked a new deal to commit his long-term future to the Reds.
Doak is seen as one of the brightest talents in the Liverpool academy setup and has been earmarked for a senior international call-up by Scotland manager Steve Clarke, who was impressed with the winger's performance in a recent Under-21 clash with Spain.
"Anybody who watched the Under‑21 game – and I did watch it – could see he is really good," Clarke said of Doak.
"He is a young man learning the game. I think going away and playing against Spain Under‑21s and being one of the highlights of the game is good for him.
"Let’s just see how things pan out. He is a young man, he is a very exciting talent, but sometimes you have to let them grow a bit."
