Liverpool are committed to bringing in young players and Richard Hughes and his recruitment team are keeping a close eye on several young talents who could be brought in to Anfield in the upcoming transfer windows.

An army of analysts are employed to pour through data on young players showing potential and the club are expected to bring in a few such talented youngsters in the upcoming windows.
19-year-old winger Momodou Sonko is one of the players who is said to be on Liverpool’s radar and there is already a real anticipation about him being destined for a move to Anfield.
Club expect an offer from Anfield soon
Gent signed the winger from Swedish side Hacken in January this year for a club-record fee €7m but Liverpool were also linked with him then.
There were suggestions that Liverpool were scouting the teenager heavily and they were the favourites to sign him in the last winter window.
Gent managed to beat them to his signing and Sonko has continued to impress in Belgium where he is still attracting the attention of scouts.
The Belgian giants are aware that they won’t be keeping him at the club for too long as big clubs are keeping tabs on him.
