Liverpool FC confirm on their websites that Conor Bradley will spend next season on loan at League One club Bolton Wanderers.
The news comes after Liverpool announced the signing of Calvin Ramsay in the same position a few days ago.
The young Northern Irishman, who already has eight international caps for Northern Ireland, made his debut for Klopp’s men in the league cup last season, and also appeared in the FA Cup and Champions League.
Convenient location and limited competition
The transfer to Bolton Wanderers has been seen as a good step for several reasons.
Bolton is only an hour’s drive from Liverpool, and it will therefore be easy to follow up the 18-year-old for the club.
At the same time, the team has only one registered right-back, according to Transfermarkt, and there should therefore be good opportunities for playing time at a level the right-back has already shown that he can handle.

– Exceptional talent
Bolton’s manager Ian Evatt has also commented on the loan. He thinks it can be fruitful for both parties.
– I think Conor will be a fantastic player for us. You do not play for Liverpool without being elite, and I think Conor is.
– Is he a finished product? No. He is a young player who wants ups and downs, but I think there will be most ups and downs.
– You do not play for the current Liverpool team if you are not exceptional, and he is an exceptional talent. That Liverpool choose us for Conor’s development is big for us, he says about the signing according to Anfield Watch Academy.
We wish Conor good luck in Bolton!
