Pepijn Lijnders has outlined the positive influence of Vitor Matos since he took up the role of elite development coach at Liverpool.
Matos joined the club earlier this month from FC Porto, filling a link role between Melwood and the Academy previously held by Lijnders himself.
“For me, he is our best signing of the season,” said assistant manager Lijnders at his pre-Arsenal press conference on Tuesday.
“He is a talented coach, a very intelligent coach. He can make the next step with all these young players. We already see the impact he made on them.
