Liverpool management delighted with Max Woltman progress | OneFootball

Liverpool management is delighted with the progress of 18 year-old striker Max Woltman.

Woltman, who has been at the Academy since the age of seven, signed his first professional contract with the Reds in January after making considerable strides at youth level.

"Max has done really well," Liverpool U18s boss Marc Bridge-Wilkinson has told the Liverpool Echo.

"He has adapted. The way that we started to play at the start of the season was a little bit different and Max was in a different role back then.

"He adapted to that and did really well but as we have lost players through injury and people moving up to the U23s, he has adapted again.

"His season has been really impressive and it was nice for him to get a goal on such an occasion.

"His link-up play] is definitely [something that has progressed this season]. It is something that we have talked about and worked with him on and we have shown him clips and different things.

"But ultimately, it is down to Max. We can show and say things and put different sessions on and all that sort of stuff, but ultimately, Max is the one taking the information on and he is going out and performing like he is.

"He deserves a lot of credit."
