Liverpool youth coach Yates excited for Rossiter after breakthrough

Liverpool youth coach Mark Yates is delighted seeing Jordan Rossiter break into the first team this season.

Yates worked with the midfielder when he was "five or six".

"It's incredible that this kid, who you've seen at nine and 13, is now on the verge of the first team, and he's scoring at Anfield in front of thousands of fans," he told the Liverpool Echo. "He's come a long way very quickly, and he can go a lot further too if he works hard and has a bit of luck."
