Nyoni backs himself for Liverpool future as Iraola shows trust in midfielder
✓ FactOn the record: said publicly by the people involved · from 1 source

Trey Nyoni has expressed confidence in his Liverpool future after making an encouraging start under new head coach Andoni Iraola.

The 19-year-old has featured four times this season, including a start in the Carabao Cup win over Tottenham, and has already accumulated 38 minutes of Premier League action. That exceeds the 21 minutes he managed in the entire 2024–25 campaign under Arne Slot.

Iraola sent Nyoni on ahead of Ryan Gravenberch in the 71st minute during Liverpool’s 1–0 win at Bournemouth, signalling faith in the England Under-20s international. Speaking to the club’s matchday programme, Nyoni said: “At the minute I’ve been playing as a six, so I assume that’s the role that he probably sees me playing the most.”

He added that Iraola’s aggressive, forward-thinking approach suits his strengths. “Everything out of possession is important,” Nyoni said. “The best way to attack is starting with the press, which is important.”
