Liverpool duo Connor Randall and Ryan Fulton pen new contracts

Liverpool duo Connor Randall and Ryan Fulton have both penned new contracts with the Merseyside club.

20-year-old Randall immediately benefited from Jurgen Klopp's arrival at Anfield with the German coach handed the right-back his senior debut in the 1-0 win over Bournemouth in the Capital One Cup. He went onto retain his place in the next round against Southampton where the Reds ran out 6-1 winners.

Randall was included in the Liverpool squad travelling to Switzerland for their Europa League clash with FC Sion on Thursday 10 December and could celebrate his new contract with another appearance.

"I'm obviously made up to sign a new deal, giving me the chance to stay here for longer, keep working, looking to improve under the manager," he told Liverpool's official website. "I'm delighted and very grateful. Since the first day you come in, that's the goal. You want to get into the first team, be involved and around it.

"It's a dream come true to be in the situation I am. To sign a contract today, I'm very pleased and grateful for the chance."

Randall has relished the opportunity to work under Klopp on a day-to-day basis and is determined to continue making an impression on the former Borussia Dortmund manager.

"He's a great manager to learn from," he added. "I'm really enjoying it at the moment, listening to all of the advice he gives me and taking it on board and bringing it all to my game.

"Football can change very quickly and luckily for me it has in the last couple of weeks. I've had a great opportunity and I'm really enjoying it. I'll keep working hard and improving, and hopefully it lasts."

Fulton meanwhile has been a regular in goal for Liverpool's Under-21 ranks and has twice featured on the bench for Klopp's squad.
