Liverpool have reportedly completed the signing
of 17-year-old Nigerian striker Taiwo Awoniyi.
The youngster, who currently plies his trade with
Imperial Soccer Academy in Nigeria, was
understood to be a target for Manchester City,
having impressed at the U20 World Cup in New
Zealand.
But according to reports, Liverpool have
won the race for Awoniyi, who is set to undergo a
medical at Anfield and sign a professional
contract imminently.
Once the deal is complete, Awoniyi will be loaned
out to gain first-team experience, with Belgium
and Holland his most likely destinations.[post_ad]
