'The environment we have here is perfect for our youngsters'

Jordan Henderson believes the standards set by Jürgen Klopp and the Liverpool squad every day make Melwood the perfect environment for young players to flourish.

The past week saw 19-year-old Curtis Jones sign a new long-term deal with the club before going on to score his maiden Premier League goal a day later at Anfield.

More good news followed when Harvey Elliott inked his first professional contract, with Neco Williams then making his full top-flight debut at Brighton and Hove Albion in midweek.

Impressed by the level of quality these young players have brought to the first team, Henderson insists the challenge for them now is to continue putting in the hard yards on and off the pitch.
