Liverpool legend’s son sends come and get me plea to Richard Hughes The term “legend” gets thrown around a lot in football these days, but few truly deserve it. For Liverpool, Emile Heskey is certainly one of them. A key figure during an iconic era, he helped the club secure a treble in 2001.

Heskey formed a formidable partnership with Michael Owen, racking up over 200 appearances and six trophies during his four years at Anfield. Even after retiring, he remains a familiar face, appearing in matches for Liverpool’s Legends team and maintaining his status as a club icon. Interestingly, both of his sons Reigan and Jaden have taken a different route, representing Manchester City rather than following in their father’s footsteps at Liverpool.

Of the two, Reigan seems to have the bigger potential, recently putting on a thrilling display that suggests he could be the next exciting talent to emerge from City’s academy and it should also alert the attention of Richard Hughes. Reigan Heskey sends come and get me plea Reigan Heskey is just 18-years-old and was actually born in Liverpool. He's regarded as a similar prospect to Rio Ngumoha.

Heskey finished last season with 36 goal contributions in 41 matches for City across all competitions. At Liverpool, this would have merited more opportunities. Ngumoha was given a chance for less.
