My Take
Ki-Jana Hoever is exactly the sort of young footballer I find myself rooting for. An Amsterdam-born, 180 cm full-back who came up through Liverpool's youth setup as a highly touted prospect, he's now in the grind of proving himself, moving to Wolves and out on loan to Sheffield United in search of minutes. The modern right-back role he plays, shuttling up and down the flank, demands stamina and game intelligence in equal measure, and it's a hard one to master young. I'll be genuinely curious to see whether he nails down a regular starting spot and makes the leap. His best years are clearly ahead.
