Liverpool’s Sheyi Ojo played for Fulham on the right wing last year.
Sheyi Ojo has returned to Liverpool leaner than ever and he is hoping to make a big impression in pre-season.
With star wingers Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah returning late due to World Cup involvement, Ojo hopes to stake a claim for a place.
Ojo is now 21 and it is three years since he made his pro debut, on loan at Wigan Athletic.
Last season he was on loan at Fulham, but his campaign was cut short due to injury.
Ojo told Liverpool’s website he wants to try and nail down a first team squad place.
After three loan spells in four seasons you can’t blame him for wanting to really knuckle down, and this is a great opportunity for him with several senior players absent early.
Ojo’s success will depend on three things, the view of Jurgen Klopp of his staff, his fitness, and perhaps even whether he is willing to learn a new position.
Liverpool fans on Twitter have expressed their doubts he will make the breakhthrough, with one adamant he should switch to left-back.
Some fans are not convinced he has a future at the club
Ojo has been threatening to break through at Liverpool for a couple of seasons now but has not been able to make the jump.
Loan spells have been hampered by injuries, and Harry Wilson is viewed as having overtaken him in the pecking order.
One fan is adamant he should play at left-back
Ojo played for Fulham at right wing last year, but one supporter is adamnt he should convert to left-back and challenge Andy Robertson for his place.
