Former Tottenham boss Tim Sherwood can see Liverpool signing Kaoru Mitoma from Brighton next season as part of Jurgen Klopp's Anfield rebuild.

The German has vowed to craft his second successful Reds side as he shut down talk of throwing in the towel after such a troublesome season that has included so many low moments for the Liverpool boss and his players.

Sherwood said on Sky Sports: “He has got everything," before later adding: “He has got all types of goals in him. He runs with the ball, he takes players on. He really commits defenders.

“He knows when to play safe. He has got the whole package, this boy, and you know by looking at him that he has got a fantastic attitude to the game.

"He is relishing playing in the best league in the world, which is the Premier League. Liverpool? Next season, son."
