LFC ‘set to sign’ Ajax’s Dutch fullback, who ‘turns down’ United

Posted by

Liverpool are again making moves to strengthen our already exceptional academy.

According to Goal, we’re ‘set to sign’ talented Dutch fullback Ki-Jana Hoever, who currently plies his trade at Ajax.

They claim the 16-year-old has rejected our rivals, such as Manchester United, City and Chelsea, and chosen to move to Liverpool instead.

Hoever is a right-back and will surely become part of the U18s initially, given the opportunity to move up if he impresses.

Liverpool have a plethora of exciting teenage prospects right now – with Trent Alexander-Arnold the example to follow.

The Scouser is still 19-years-old, but is currently at the World Cup with England, having played in a Champions League Final just over a month ago.

We don’t know anything about Hoever, so are trusting the club’s scouts entirely on this one.

That being said, there’s no guarantee a brilliant 16-year-old will transition into the professional ranks successfully, as hundreds of factors come into account between 16 and 20.

But we do know that at Liverpool, he’ll get a superb chance to fulfil his talent.
