# Much fancied youngster Duncan to train with first team

Bobby Duncan has been seriously impressing for the U18’s this season.

With eight goals in eight games, academy director Alex Inglethorpe has selected the forward for a promotion.

Heading to Melwood, the 17-year-old will get a chance to show manager Jürgen Klopp his skills with the senior team.

With his international players jetting off to all corners of the world, Klopp has taken the chance over the last week to include numerous prodigies in his sessions.

[The Liverpool Echo report](https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/bobby-duncan-takes-next-step-15295906) that Paul Glatzel, Adam Lewis, Dan Atherton, Matty Virtue and Liam Coyle were all invited to Melwood earlier in the week, with Duncan to make an appearance once the squad is back at full strength.

Bobby Lewtas’ U18 team have been catching the eye of numerous Liverpool fans in the last few months, with several youngsters turning in superb performances.
