DONE DEAL:Liverpool complete £32m deal for 18-year-old centre-back

While progress is being made as Liverpool seek more first-team signings, the club have completed a deal for teenage Wolves defender Harvey Owen.

This summer has already seen 10 players depart Liverpool’s academy ranks, with six released and four others sold to other clubs

Leighton Clarkson has joined Aberdeen, Layton Stewart headed to Preston, Elijah Gift joined Athletic Club and Kerron Samuels signed a deal with Brentford.

Of those whose contracts expired, Jack Bearne (Greenock Morton), Charlie Hayes-Green (Bolton) and Iwan Roberts (Bala Town) have already landed elsewhere, while Oludare Olufunwa is on trial at Burton Albion.

Further exits can be expected as Max Woltman looks to impress with a trial at Oxford United, but there has also been movement in terms of incomings.

Owen, 14, has announced his arrival at the AXA Training Centre after seven years at Wolves, with the deal reported to be worth up to £800,000.

“Very happy to sign for Liverpool, can’t wait to get started,” he wrote on Instagram.

Thank you to everybody who has helped me to get where I am today and just wanna say big thank you to Wolves who have supported me throughout my career.
