This departure comes at a time when Liverpool are struggling both on and off the pitch. Under Jurgen Klopp, young players thrived because of an environment that prioritised development and provided a clear path to first-team football. Arne Slot’s approach has been very different. With a smaller squad and a reluctance to rotate, academy prospects now see fewer opportunities to break through.
As a result, several top young players including Joshua Abe, Erik Farkas and Vincent Joseph have still not signed scholarship deals, with major Premier League and European clubs circling. Moss’ exit could signal the beginning of a worrying trend. With the pathway to senior football looking increasingly unclear, Liverpool risk losing what many regard as their strongest academy generation in years, all stemming from decisions made at senior level.
