Sergi Canos will become a player Liverpool fans will adore in the coming years, as long as his development is managed properly.

The 18-year-old Spaniard has been one of the stars of the season for Brentford with his play thrilling supporters and leaving defenders struggling.

In my mind, Canos will become a Premier League player with Liverpool in time but he is not the finished product yet.

Below, we take a look at his characteristics and why the forward will be a Premier League player.

Canos' desire to do his best for Brentford is excellent and he has been rewarded for his efforts with two goals.

In the past players have gone on loan to the Bees and not performed to their capabilities. Whether that is because they believe they're better than they are or the club's setup at those times were alien to some of the pampered Premier League academy youngsters is up for debate.

Canos, on the other hand, has produced a run of good displays and, even if he has a quiet game, always displays the right attitude.

The 18-year-old loves to play football. That much is clear from the minute you start watching him and enhanced when speaking to him.

Indeed, Canos was unhappy that Dean Smith rested him, even though the Brentford head coach was doing so for the right reasons.

Rather than sulk on the training pitch, which other players would do, the 18-year-old tried to ensure the Bees boss didn't consider that option again by producing an excellent performance against Huddersfield.

That enthusiasm is displayed in the defensive side of the game and Canos has no qualms in going in for a tackle and getting involved. He seems to enjoy that just as much as when the ball is at his feet.

This attribute will go down well with Jurgen Klopp who likes his teams to play a high-octane style and press their opponents all over the pitch.

At times, he has been over-exuberant and has trodden a fine line with the referee on occasions but he will learn to keep his cool in certain situations.

When Canos has the ball, he is a box of tricks and is always looking to attack when he has the ball.

He has no fear in taking on his man and if he doesn't succeed at first, he'll try again until he does.

He has a decent cross on him and, on debut, set up Lasse Vibe for his equaliser against Preston.

Canos can also finish as shown against Huddersfield where he controlled the ball with his right foot before spinning past his man to fire home.

His best position is a right sided forward with the freedom to cut into the middle when need be. He's happy coping against some of the powerful defenders in the Championship.

There is no doubt that Canos can go as far as he wants in the game, as long as he maintains his excellent attitude.
