Liverpool are set to save millions thanks to Arne Slot’s<\/a> decision to promote youngster Trey Nyoni to the first team. Tyler Morton completed a \u00a315million transfer <\/a>to Lyon<\/a> on Tuesday, ending his 15-year stint with the Anfield club.<\/p>\n

That transfer paved the way for Nyoni to step up in place of the 22-year-old. Initial reports suggest the midfielder will take Morton’s spot in the Liverpool<\/a> first-team set-up next season, with the 18-year-old seemingly set to be awarded more opportunities.<\/p>\n

Nyoni is one of the two exceptionally talented youngsters in Slot’s squad, alongside Rio Ngumoha.<\/a> However, Nyoni stands to gain the most from Morton’s departure, given that he plays in the same role as a central midfielder. Slot referenced Nyoni’s emergence last week when discussing the buzz around Ngumoha’s impressive displays<\/a> during the pre-season tour of China.<\/p>\n

“We have a lot of very good players, but to get some brand new players from the academy is helpful,” Slot admitted. “It gives energy to the team. It is nice to see young players at 16, 17 or 18 impact the game.”<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Nyoni revealed to club media in May his desire to play a more significant part in Liverpool’s future successes after featuring in five matches under Slot last season.<\/p>\n

“It’s nice being a part of it but ultimately what you strive for is to play more and more,” he said. “It’s nice to have records but it’s not how you start, it’s how you finish \u2013 I always stick to that. Hopefully, I can just continue to keep on doing what I’m doing and then everything else will just sort itself out.”<\/p>\n

He explained during the same interview how Curtis Jones and captain Virgil van Dijk have made extra efforts to make him feel at home in the first-team squad.<\/p>\n

“All of them have been good but the first person that spoke to me was the captain,” Nyoni recalled. “Curtis as well has helped me a lot since I’ve come up. He’s always there, looking out for me. Ibou as well.<\/p>\n

“Everyone has been good and always just trying to help. In training, it’s good when you’ve got everyone training at a high standard because then you know what the level is.”<\/p>\n
