Hungarian prodigy Krisztian Nemeth is on a season-long loan at AEK Athens.
The striker arrived from MTK Hungaria alongside compatriot Andras Simon in the summer of 2007 having impressed in the previous year's UEFA U17 Championships.
He quickly set about finding the back of the net, bagging a brace on his second-string debut against Man City.
If this had Kopites purring, a double in the mini-derby a week later really got the terraces buzzing.
Nemeth went on to score his ninth of the league campaign as the reserves clinched the national title at Anfield against Aston Villa in May 2008.
Later that month, after netting the crucial goal against Portugal to take Hungary U19s to the European Championships, he received his first senior international call up.
A series of injuries disrupted Nemeth's progress in 2008-09. His luck was epitomised by a broken cheekbone during a first appearance for loan side Blackpool, forcing an early return to Melwood.
The youngster returned in time to join the first team for tours of Switzerland and Asia during the 2009-10 pre-season. The highlight came with a brace against Singapore in one of a clutch of friendly appearances.
In August 2009, Nemeth joined AEK Athens on a season-long loan.
With lethal finishing, great movement and a fine touch, big things are expected of the Hungary hotshot.
