LIVERPOOL will continue to run the rule over Congolese defender Medi Abalimba after Southend United allowed him to remain on trial until the end of the week.
The 16-year-old will play in a training game tomorrow following his appearance in the 1-0 reserve defeat to Manchester City on Tuesday.
“Even if nothing comes of all this it has been a good experience,” Abalimba said.
“To now know the actual standard I am aiming for will be a big help if I want to play at the top level.
“I played on the right wing against Manchester City and I did okay even though it isn’t my preferred position.
“Most of the players playing were 23 or 24 so it was a lot more physical than I am used to. That was my first game at that level but the reserve team manager said he was proud of how I played.”
