Liverpool are reportedly open to loaning out Neco Williams during the next transfer window.

While being regarded as an understudy to Trent Alexander-Arnold, the 19-year-old has made a huge impression during his five appearances in cup competitions.

Given the financial impact of the coronavirus pandemic, the Premier League leaders are likely to consider keeping the Welshman as backup to the near-irreplaceable Alexander-Arnold.

However, according to the Liverpool Echo, Jurgen Klopp is open to handing the prospect a chance to earn regular first-team football at another club.

Members of Liverpool's staff have allegedly been left encouraged by Harry Wilson's development during his loan spell at Bournemouth, highlighting the possible long-term benefits of allowing Williams to gain experience elsewhere.
