Stefan Bajcetic signs new long-term Liverpool FC contract!

The 18-year-old Stefan Bajcetic committed his future to Liverpool FC by penning the deal at the AXA Training Centre on Thursday afternoon.

He said, “Obviously I’m so, so happy, so excited to keep playing for this club and hopefully I can play more years together. Me and my family are very proud to sign a new contract with this club.”

“It feels amazing. It’s something I’ve been dreaming of in these two years I’ve been here and something that I’ve been working hard [for] as well.”

Bajcetic arrived at the Reds from Celta Vigo in December 2020 as he went on to represent the U-18 and U-21 sides in the Academy set-up.

Having been part of the first team’s pre-season ahead of the 2022-23 campaign, the Spain youth international was then handed competitive opportunities by Jürgen Klopp.

He made his senior debut shortly before his 18th birthday when he came off the bench in the 9-0 Premier League victory over AFC Bournemouth at Anfield.

A first start then arrived in November in the Carabao Cup tie against Derby County, before opening his goalscoring account with an incredibly composed finish at Aston Villa a month later.

In total, Bajcetic has made 10 first-team appearances so far this season – three of which have also been in the UEFA Champions League.

“It’s crazy,” the No.43 continued. “A year ago I was playing U-18s football and now I’ve started some games, made my debut and even scored a goal – that was something I never expected to happen this year.

“It’s amazing to see how fast it went. But I keep working hard and hopefully [there are] more things to come.”
