Liverpool academy player, Jake Cain, has expressed his desire to leave the club in pursuit of regular football.
Cain was omitted by Ljinders and Klopp for their pre-season tour but his compatriots Stefan Bajcetic, Tyler Morton, Leighton Clarkson, Isaac Mabaya, Luke Chambers and Bobby Clark were all involved.
“I’m ready for another challenge,” Cain said. “I need to go on loan again, I need men’s football, and I feel now that I’ll be ready to hit the ground running when the opportunity comes. I know that I’m ready.”
“I can’t lie, I was disappointed,” Cain added. “I thought I had a good loan, I did what was asked of me, and I thought I could come back and show the first-team what I can do.
“They’re the best team in Europe, so I know it’s going to be very difficult to push for a place in the team. But I thought I might have been able to go on the tour, show what I can do and see what the first-team coaches said. So, yeah, it was disappointing.”
Cain spent the last season on loan to Newport County and played 25 times for them. The 20-year-old is said to be attracting interest from Championship clubs now.
