A Liverpool starlet could join a Premier League rival in a big transfer twist

Kieran Morrison is one of the most talented young midfielders in the Liverpool academy and even made the bench for a Champions League game this season.
He is yet to make his senior debut, but the 18-year-old midfielder could move on from the Merseyside giants in the upcoming transfer window.
According to journalist Fabrizio Romano, Wolves have approached Liverpool to discuss a deal to sign Morrison in the upcoming window.
Wolves have been keeping tabs on the Liverpool starlet and have now made the transfer move to sign him with the lure of playing in the Premier League next season.
The club are prepared to offer him a shortcut to the first team next season, while it seems even more difficult to break into Arne Slot’s squad given they will bring in midfield reinforcements.
Liverpool would also book a pure profit if they sell Morrison to Wolves for a decent fee.
