Midfielder Stefan Bajcetic established himself in Liverpool FC's senior squad during an impressive breakthrough 2022-23 season.

Bajcetic – a Spain U18 international whose father played for Serbia – joined the Reds from Celta Vigo in February 2021 and can play in central midfield or defence.

His rise at the club has been rapid, going from debuting for the U18s as an U16 player in 2020-21 to making his senior bow as a 17-year-old in August 2022.

Bajcetic would go on to make 19 appearances in midfield for the senior team before, in March 2023, picking up an injury he revealed would sideline him for the rest of the campaign.

He scored his first senior goal in the 2022 Boxing Day win at Villa Park and his eye-catching form saw him voted the club's Standard Chartered Men's Player of the Month for January by supporters.

Long-term injury saw him miss most of the 2023-24 season but he returned for the final few weeks of Jürgen Klopp's reign.

Bajcetic made 19 appearances during a loan spell in Austria with Red Bull Salzburg in the first half of the next campaign, then switched to Spanish side Las Palmas for the remainder of 2024-25.
