Career

Scanlon joined Liverpool from Birmingham City as a 15-year-old, in a reported £500,000 deal in December 2020. [2] He signed his first professional contract with the club in March 2022 shortly after his 17th birthday.[3] In July 2023, he was included in the Liverpool first-team pre-season training camp to Germany.[4] He was then included in Liverpool's 27-man squad to tour Singapore on 27 July 2023.[5]

In September 2023, Scanlon scored for Liverpool against EFL League Two side Morecambe in the EFL Trophy.[6] Scanlan continued to train with the Liverpool first-team squad during the 2023–24 season following an injury to first-choice left-back Andrew Robertson,[7] and was named among the match day substitutes for the Premier League match against local rivals Everton on 21 October 2023.[8]
