Manager to attend Champions League clash to scout Reds player

Liverpool take on Real Madrid on Tuesday night in the first leg of their Champions League round of 16 tie.

It is a repeat of last season’s final, which ended in a 1-0 win for Madrid at the Stade de France in Paris.

Liverpool will be hoping for a better result this time around and will head into the first leg with optimism after beating Everton and Newcastle in back-to-back games in the Premier League.

The 18-year-old has cemented his place in the first-team with a series of confident performances in central midfield.

Spain manager to watch Bajcetic on Tuesday

Bajcetic has also caught the eye of Spain manager Luis de la Fuente.

According to Spanish publication AS, as reported by Get Spanish Football News, De la Fuente will be in attendance when Madrid face Liverpool at Anfield.

While a number of Spanish players are likely to feature in the match, De La Fuente will have a particularly keen eye on Bajcetic, who is yet to confirm his international allegiance.

The midfielder’s father, former Celta Vigo player Srdjan Bajcetic, is reportedly hopeful that his son will choose to play for Serbia.

But Bajcetic was born and has spent the majority of his life in Spain, and has already been called up to Spain’s U18 squad under Pablo Amo, De la Fuente’s assistant.

Should he impress against Madrid, there is the possibility Bajcetic could be called up to Spain’s senior squad for their Euro 2024 qualifiers against Norway and Scotland next month.
