Herbie Kane relishing 'great occasion' at Villa Park

The U23s midfielder is set to play in the Reds’ Carabao Cup quarter-final against Aston Villa alongside many of his Academy teammates and under the management of regular boss Neil Critchley.

That is due to the fact Jürgen Klopp and his senior squad are in Qatar for the FIFA Club World Cup this week - and Kane is eager to make the most of the opportunity at Villa Park.

“It should be good. Obviously it’s going to be a tough game, but a great occasion for us lads to go out and play in such a big game.
