Liverpool's Bajcetic impresses, drawing Busquets comparisons

mirror.co.uk

Liverpool's young midfielder, Stefan Bajcetic, is impressing during his loan spell at Las Palmas. The 20-year-old has drawn comparisons to former Barcelona star Sergio Busquets due to his strong performances in LaLiga. Bajcetic joined Las Palmas in January after a challenging time at Red Bull Salzburg, where he struggled to find form. Since arriving in Spain, he has made seven appearances and has excelled in key defensive statistics, such as tackles and interceptions. His playing style has sparked praise from experts, including Spanish journalist Manuel Garcia, who noted Bajcetic's skill in controlling the ball and his movement on the pitch. This is not the first time he has been likened to Busquets; former Celta Vigo academy director Alex Otero made similar remarks before, highlighting Bajcetic's potential to contribute to attacks. Liverpool manager Arne Slot has expressed his admiration for the young player. He believes Bajcetic has the talent to become important for the team in the future, provided he continues to gain experience and playing time. For now, Bajcetic will focus on his loan at Las Palmas, where he is expected to develop further before possibly returning to Liverpool and contributing to the team's success next season.
