Through this loan season, the English international can get chance to sharpen his ability and back to the Anfield with full confidence.

On the other hand, Burnley is very happy to get him on their side for one season long. He is the fourth signing of the Clarets this summer. Through this youngster, the Clarets can strengthen their defensive position which would probably help them in upcoming EPL competition.
Including Jon Flanagan, the Reds have given six players loan this summer where Brazilian Allan and Ryan Kent are two of them.
Liverpool is one of the Big Four club in EPL which is currently managed by Jurgen Klopp. He has taken the charge of the Reds in 2015 and by his guideline, his club has finished the last Premier League season by standing 8th position. Now, he is focusing to be the title winner for the first time in upcoming season and so, he is trying to rearrange his club’s structure and trying to release some players who are out numbered. However, Flanagan is passing hard time now and seems not completely fit for regular competition so, he was given loan to the Clarets.
