Vitezslav Jaros' loan move to the Irish Premier Division was the culmination of three Academy transfers designed to create pathways for each goalkeeper involved.
Liverpool stopper Jaros sealed a switch to St Patrick’s Athletic last week, where he will spend the duration of a league season that begins next month and runs until November.
The Czech, an FA Youth Cup winner with the Reds two years ago, is expected to gain invaluable experience in senior professional football during his stay at Richmond Park.
Jaros will be working with St Pat’s goalkeeping coach Pat Jennings Jr. – son of the Northern Ireland great of the same name – in an environment chosen especially to aid his progress arc.
