Bobby Clark makes Premier League history with Liverpool debut

Bobby Clark made Premier League history as he made his Liverpool debut in yesterday's 9-0 thumping of Bournemouth.

The teenager played the final seven minutes of the hammering of the Cherries at Anfield.

Clark and his family, including Newcastle icon Lee Clark, watched on with pride as he played his first minutes and in doing so became the first player to be born in 2005 to appear in the Premier League.

Clark replaced Trent Alexander-Arnold for the final throes of the game against Scott Parker's Bournemouth.

Liverpool beat off competition from Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester City for Clark's signature from Newcastle United last year.
