Photo: Samed Yesil trains with the Liverpool first-team ahead of their clash with Hull City
Forgotten striker Samed Yesil was pictured training with the Liverpool first-team on Thursday as the Reds prepare for their Premier League clash with Hull City.
Yesil, 20, has become something of a forgotten figure amongst fans, the German striker was signed in 2012 in a £1 million deal from Bayer Leverkusen.
The striker was highly-rated, with many expecting the German to feature in the first-team very quickly and often after signing for Liverpool.
However, Yesil has made two appearances for Liverpool since joining the club. The forward made his debut against West Brom in the League Cup third round, starting against the Baggies.
Yesil then made his second Liverpool appearance against Swansea in the fourth round of the League Cup, since then the striker has not appeared for the first-team.
Furthermore, in his first season at Liverpool, the youngster ruptured his anterior cruciate ligament on international duty with Germany’s Under-19, the striker was then out for rest of the season. The injury arguably regressed the ability of the youngster, meaning he is now playing catch up.
However, on Thursday, the striker trained with the Liverpool first-team, suggesting that Brendan Rodgers has been keeping an eye out on him.
