- He has started the season strongly at youth level, scoring three goals in five U18 matches and producing a hat-trick plus two assists in the U17 Premier League Cup against Aston Villa.
- He became Liverpool’s second youngest U18 debutant in 2023 at 15 years, one month and nine days, underlining his early progression through the ranks.
- U18s coach Simon Wiles said Forrester was a constant threat in a recent 1-0 loss to Leicester City that ended their Premier League Cup campaign.
