Whatever happens, that kid is not going to stay at West Ham.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3429\" data-end=\"3683\">&#8220;He has it all. He is mobile and technically very good. He reminds me a bit of the two Portuguese midfielders who ran and dominated at PSG.

He deserves to compete at a higher level and a move to a club at Champions League level would be ideal for him.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3429\" data-end=\"3683\">Playing regular football for Liverpool will accelerate his development and help him reach his potential. It remains to be seen whether Liverpool can secure a deal from West Ham in the summer.
