Liverpool have reportedly expressed an interest in signing Nigerian youth-team international, Taiwo Awoniyi, who currently plays for Imperial Academy in his nation of birth.
According to the Liverpool Echo, the Reds have jumped to the front of the queue for the player’s signature, a queue which also includes the likes of Monaco and FC Porto.
Awoniyi, a 17-year-old striker, shot to prominence by helping his country win the Under-17 World Cup two years ago, scoring four goals in the competition to lead his side to victory.
