Calvin Ramsay's Surprise Start Wins Slot's Praise, Opens Door to Premier League Role

Slot's endorsement positions the 22-year-old, already registered for the league, as a short-term right-back option.

Overview

  • The 22-year-old started at right-back against Crystal Palace in the Carabao Cup, his first Liverpool appearance in nearly three years.
  • Liverpool were beaten 3-0 at Anfield and knocked out of the competition, with local reporting describing it as a sixth defeat in seven games.
  • Arne Slot said Ramsay delivered a "very, very decent" performance and praised his calmness and composure on the ball.
  • Journalist-collated match data credited Ramsay with the most recoveries, strong duel numbers, and 41 of 50 passes completed.
  • Ramsay is named in Liverpool’s Premier League squad and is available while Jeremie Frimpong is sidelined and Conor Bradley’s fitness is managed, making him an option for the visit of Aston Villa on Saturday.
