Liverpool trying to complete £5m deal for superb teen striker

Posted by

19-year-old striker Jerome Sinclair has been barely used at all since appearing in the FA Cup for Liverpool back in January. Since the Reds don’t appear to have any short-term plans for their young striker, they have a big decision to make about his future. For Sinclair, that appears to mean an early exit from Anfield.

According to Shoot, Liverpool are working on a transfer deal with Watford to offload the teenage striker before his contract expires at the end of the season. Per the source, the deal would be worth around £5 million for the former Under-17 star.

Sinclair has made just five appearances for Liverpool since his debut in the 2012-13 season one week after his 16th birthday. He made two appearances in the Premier League during the 2014-15 season, and finally scored his first senior goal in a 2-2 draw against Exeter City.

Watford already have a pair of superb strikers in Odion Ighalo and Troy Deeney, but could very well lose one of them in the summer transfer window.
