Academy graduate Conor Bradley wants Liverpool to complete a clean sweep of trophies for outgoing boss Jurgen Klopp.

The Reds booked their place in the Europa League quarter-finals with a thumping 6-1 victory over Sparta Prague at Anfield, securing a stunning 11-2 aggregate win.

Having already picked up the Carabao Cup with their 1-0 success over Chelsea at Wembley last month, Bradley is urging his team-mates to add more silverware before the end of the season with the Premier League and FA Cup still up for grabs.

The 20-year-old Northern Irish defender told TNT Sports: "When we found out the news about the manager it was hard to take.

"He is the only manager I've really known at this club. So for him to be leaving is sad but now we just want to win every trophy we can for him and give him the best send-off we can.

"We just keep ourselves focused on the next game. Keep playing well, keep the performances high and keep going."

Klopp's side were 4-0 up inside 14 minutes at Anfield with Darwin Nunez, Bobby Clark, Mohamed Salah and Cody Gakpo all on the scoresheet.

Veljko Birmancevic pulled one back for the Czech visitors before half-time but Dominik Szoboszlai and Gakpo's second completed the rout.

It was another opportunity for the Reds' youngsters to shine with 19-year-old midfielder James McConnell and 20-year-old Pole Mateusz Musialowski coming off the bench.

And Bradley was pleased to share the field with his fellow academy talents.

He added: "It makes it an easier transition coming into the first team having so many of our young players, Harvey [Elliott], Jarell [Quansah], Bobby [Clark], James McConnell.

"It definitely does help ease you into the team. I've been playing with them the whole way through the academy so to be playing with them now at Anfield is class, it is special.

"I see them every day and know how good they are so just tell them to be themselves. I tell them to play their own game and if they make a mistake, get on the ball again and try to make things happen.

"I just enjoy learning and gaining the experience. I just want to keep making myself better and hope it continues."
