Rhian Brewster finished the Under-17 World Cup as top goalscorer

Brewster finished as the tournament’s top scorer with eight goals, including two hat-tricks and another strike in Saturday’s final as Spain were beaten 5-2 in Kolkata. He flew into Heathrow Airport yesterday along with the rest of the triumphant squad.

The 17-year-old was one of the stars of the show in India, following in the footsteps of players such as Cesc Fabregas by winning the competition’s Golden Boot.

Klopp is delighted Brewster has had such a good month, but was quick to bring him back down to earth by telling him to stick to soft drinks.

“Rhian, congratulations from Liverpool,” Klopp said. “You scored one or two or three? Only one? Congratulations, we are really proud.

“Our best regards here from Liverpool, have a nice party, but no alcohol. Have a nice party with Coca-Cola and Fanta or whatever. See you soon.”
