Marc Bridge-Wilkinson on U18s appointment: 'I'm really proud to continue LFC journey'

Marc Bridge-Wilkinson has spoken of his immense pride at being appointed Liverpool's new U18s boss by Academy manager Alex Inglethorpe.

The former Derby County attacker, who arrived in Kirkby in 2015, was previously in charge of the U16s and will step up a level for the 2020-21 campaign.

Bridge-Wilkinson succeeds Barry Lewtas in the role following the latter's own promotion to U23s manager earlier this year.

We recently caught up with the 41-year-old to discuss his role in helping young players in their career development, how he came to join Liverpool, and a special Anfield memory he will never forget.
