Liverpool –
Former youth player Liverpool Tom Brewitt makes a surprising confession. For the sake of the opportunity to play in the Liverpool first team, Brewitt had the heart to injure his own partner.
The incident occurred in 2015/16, the debut season Jürgen Klopp coach Liverpool. At that time the Reds faced a central defender crisis before the FA Cup match against fourth division team Exeter.
Brewitt believes it will be time for him to make his Liverpool first-team debut, but he knows he will have to compete with Daniel Cleary. The player who is now defending Morecambe then made a dangerous tackle on Cleary in training.
After his mischief, Brewitt didn’t even play in the match. The reason is, Klopp had other plans patchy and Brewitt was never promoted to Liverpool’s first team.
“Juergen knows there is a crisis so he will play Jose Enrique at center-back and he will recall Thiago Illori from loan. We don’t know until the first week of January, so at the end of December the only choices are me or Dan Cleary, who I think will make the debut for the first team Liverpool in this match, “Brewitt said Mirror.
“Me and Dan have always been honest with each other, but I think I’ve ended that relationship. I made a decision, whether to debut me or him, so I chased him during training,” continued the 23-year-old player.
“Before Christmas and the time between Christmas and New Year’s, I was standing next to him in ball practice, I was standing next to him in a lot of games, and I kicked him. I didn’t want to hurt him badly, it just hurt enough that he steps aside and I’ll play. “
“It was about a week before the game against Exeter. I got a tough touch in a seven-man match and he came to hit me. I waited for a split second, then it hit him, it was a bad tackle. I know it’s a bad tackle and I did it with on purpose. “
“I’m not proud but I’m not ashamed either because in my mind there is only either me or him, and I chose myself,” Brewitt concluded.
