'It makes absolute sense that Neco is here developing every day': Jurgen Klopp hints at a new role for Liverpool star Williams as he waves away talk of a January loan after being impressed by his Wales performances

Neco Williams might not be seeing much game-time right now but Jurgen Klopp has big plans for the youngster, especially after watching him star for Wales.

While Klopp has only granted Williams a single EFL Cup start this season, Dragons stand-in coach Rob Page has put his faith in the 20-year-old, who played 90 minutes against Belarus and Belgium this international break.

Williams scored from left back in a 5-1 thumping of Belarus, before digging in at left wing back to hold Roberto Martinez's world No 1s to a 1-1 draw.
