Liverpool have taken the decision to recall youngster Kaide Gordon from his loan spell at Norwich City due to a lack of game time.
The 20-year-old winger has only started one league match for the Championship outfit with a further nine appearances off the bench. He was an unused substitute in their 4-0 defeat to Brighton in the FA Cup on Saturday.
Gordon will return to Liverpool this week and the plan is to fix up another loan for the second half of the season with a number of Football League clubs having already registered interest in securing his services.
After joining Liverpool from Derby County for a fee potentially rising to £3.4m in February 2021, Gordon made an impressive senior breakthrough under former manager Jurgen Klopp.
He became the second youngest goal scorer in the club’s history when he netted against Shrewsbury Town in the FA Cup in January 2022 at the age of 17.
However, his progress was then hampered by injury setbacks and he featured just three times for Liverpool in 2023-24 before being loaned to Norwich last summer.
Meanwhile, Calvin Ramsay is joining Scottish Premiership side Kilmarnock on loan for the rest of the season.
Liverpool had been looking for the right opportunity for him to gain more senior experience since recalling him from Wigan Athletic earlier this month.
The 21-year-old right-back started just three league matches and has only made 12 appearances in total for the League One outfit.
Ramsay has played twice for Liverpool since arriving in a £6.5million switch from Aberdeen in 2022. His first season at Anfield was wrecked by serious back and knee injuries.
Last season he had loan spells at Preston North End and Bolton Wanderers but wasn’t able to secure regular game time.
