The Portuguese youngster - who had been tipped to leave Anfield on loan in January and return to former club Sporting Lisbon - scored a hat-trick in Liverpool Under-23s' 6-0 win over Leicester at the King Power Stadium on Sunday. And news of the 18-year-old's scoring prowess might come as a surprise to those who have seen Camacho's two first-team appearances, during which Klopp has picked him as a right-back. But following the Leicester treble, he suggested that he shouldn't be played in a defensive position. "Happy to score 3 goals and help the team in today’s win vs Leicester." Camacho was first used at right-back during Liverpool's pre-season tour to the USA last summer, and has been suggested as an understudy to Trent Alexander-Arnold in the position.
