NewsOwen Beck completes season-long loan move to Blackburn Rovers
Liverpool defender Owen Beck has joined Blackburn Rovers on a season-long loan deal.
The 22-year-old full-back – who arrived at the Academy at U13 level and has gone on to make three senior appearances for the Reds – signed for the Championship club for the 2024-25 campaign on Tuesday.
Wales U21 international Beck will seek to build on a successful loan stint with Dundee in 2023-24 while at Ewood Park. He made 28 appearances for Dundee across all competitions last term and was voted into the PFA Scotland Premiership Team of the Year by his fellow professionals.
Beck, who has also spent time on loan with Bolton Wanderers and Famalicao, made three appearances during Liverpool’s programme of pre-season friendlies this summer.
Blackburn have made a positive start to the new Championship season under head coach John Eustace, collecting seven points from their three fixtures so far. Rovers’ next league match is a derby meeting with Burnley at Turf Moor on Saturday lunchtime.
