Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has hinted Ben Woodburn won't be loaned out this season.
The teen caught the eye again in Wednesday's 2-0 win over Crystal Palace in Hong Kong.
"Ben has played there's a few times before and he's a very smart player," Klopp said.
"He's too young to fix him to any one position. We want to have him in and around our team.
"We will see what happens as he grows. Will he get even smarter? 100%. Bringing him into the middle of the park will help him to learn the highest level of football under pressure.
"It's exciting. I have no idea what his best position is, I'm just happy to have him around."
