Doak, who was highly regarded at Celtic for his rapid development and natural talent, revealed that his desire to push himself and embrace a new challenge was the driving factor in his decision.

“It wasn’t an easy choice, leaving Celtic, where I had a lot of support, but I felt like moving to Liverpool would give me the best opportunity to develop at the highest level,” Doak shared in a recent interview.

At just 16 years old at the time of the move, the young winger had already made his debut for Celtic’s first team, showcasing his speed, technical ability, and confidence on the ball. However, the chance to join a club with Liverpool’s pedigree was too good to pass up.

The Liverpool Appeal

Doak highlighted the world-class facilities, coaching staff, and Liverpool’s proven track record of developing young talent as major factors in his decision. “At Liverpool, I knew I’d be surrounded by some of the best players and coaches in the world. It was an environment where I could learn and grow every day.
