Academy manager Alex Inglethorpe is keeping a close eye on the fortunes of on-loan Harry Wilson at AFC Bournemouth this season.
After impressing for Derby County in the Championship last term, the Wales international has made a bright start on the south coast.
Wilson netted on his Cherries debut against Aston Villa and then swerved in a sensational free-kick during the meeting with Manchester City the following week.
His performances were recognised with Bournemouth's August Player of the Month award on Thursday.
Inglethorpe is hopeful Wilson can continue to excel in the Premier League during a season-long spell away from Anfield.
