Liverpool closing on striker signing

Posted by

Liverpool’s transfer window has been very busy already, but with one more day until it closes, we’re expected to get one more deal over the line.

Taiwo Awoniyi, the 18-year-old Nigerian Under-23 striker, is expected to join from Imperial Academy in his homeland, claims the Echo.

Due to work-permit issues, Awoniyi is expected to leave on loan for a season in order to get himself the appropriate documentation – and will join Michael Beale’s Under-21 squad if all goes to plan.

The forward prides himself on his pace and first time finishing, but has yet to prove himself in European professional football.

We’ve acquired a few exotic, talented names this summer – with Bobby Adekanye arriving from Barcelona and Allan Rodrigues signing from Internacional.

Whether Awoniyi will ever make the first-team of course, or the other two for that matter, only time will tell.
