It is set to be a busy final week of the transfer window for Liverpool, including a number of loan exits from the academy, with Jayden Danns chief among those.
Danns made his return to the pitch on Friday night as a second-half substitute in the U21s’ 1-1 draw away to Everton, having suffered an injury setback in pre-season.
The striker is now among those who will be considered for a loan move before the transfer deadline on September 1.
U21s head coach Rob Page told This Is Anfield‘s Sam Millne after the draw at Goodison Park: “There are conversations we can have now.”
He is not the only academy player who will be available over the next week, with Liverpool’s head of loan management Gary Probert assessing a host of opportunities.

This Is Anfield understands the representatives of fellow centre-forward Will Wright were due to hold talks over temporary moves last week.
Goalkeeper Kornel Misciur has also been lined up for a non-league loan, with the 19-year-old on the bench against Everton ahead of a switch which should see him continue working at the AXA Training Centre during the weeks.
The Athletic‘s James Pearce further reports that Kaide Gordon, Wellity Lucky and Keyrol Figueroa are also being weighed up for loans.
There is interest in both Luke Chambers and James McConnell from clubs in the Championship, though any decision over the pair will be made at the last minute – not least with McConnell, who was in the squad for Liverpool’s Premier League opener.

Lewis Koumas is another whose immediate future is up in the air, but with the 20-year-old coming off the bench against Newcastle the current expectation is that he will stay.
Liverpool have already secured loans for Ifeanyi Ndukwe, Armin Pecsi, Kieran Morrison, Calum Scanlon, Amara Nallo, Kyle Kelly and most recently Calvin Ramsay, whose season-long switch to St Mirren was confirmed on Tuesday.
Fabian Mrozek is also currently on loan with MLS side FC Cincinnati, where he is now starting goalkeeper, though that deal has been in place since March.

There could be more exits impending, too, with right-back Isaac Mabaya switching agents this week ahead of what could be a permanent transfer.
Mabaya was able to prove his fitness in pre-season and, turning 22 next week, will be looking to make up for lost time after a series of injuries.
The likes of Noah Adekoya, Lucas Pitt, Clae Ewing, Michael Laffey and Josh Sonni-Lambie could arguably benefit from gaining experience elsewhere, but Liverpool will also be minded to retain a core squad for the U21s.
