Liverpool records the youngest goal creator in history for longer.

Ben Woodburn has linked his future to Liverpool. On Wednesday evening, the Premier League club will announce through official channels that the 18-year-old attacker has signed a new multi-year contract. Woodburn made his debut in the main power eleven months ago, in a 2-0 victory over Sunderland. Only two football players played their first Liverpool match at a younger age: 17 years and 42 days.

Three days later, on 29 November 2016, Woodburn became the youngest goal maker in club history: he scored in the EFL Cup match against Leeds United (2-0). Woodburn’s counter now stands at ten official duels in the main power and he is now A-international of Wales. In his very first interland, the World Cup qualification competition against Austria (1-0), he made the winning goal.

“It’s incredible feeling to sign a new contract with Liverpool”, says Woodburn on the club site,”This is the club where I want to stay for as long as possible. I wanted to sign the new contract as soon as possible. It feels good. Now I’d like to continue on the right track and hopefully show the trainer what I can,” Woodburn wants to play as many matches as possible for Liverpool Bottom-19 and the first one this season,”Hopefully I’ll play some more duels in the first and continue in the Champions League for Bottom-19″, concludes the teenager.
