Liverpool’s teenage striker Paul Glatzel has signed his first professional contract with the Reds.
The prolific forward turned 18 on Wednesday, and has celebrated by putting pen to paper on a long-term deal with the club.
Glatzel, who was born in Liverpool to German parents, joined the Reds as an Under-9s player and has caught the eye as captain of Barry Lewtas’ Under-18 side this season.
He has scored 22 goals already at that level, and on Monday night notched his first for Neil Critchley’s Under-23 team, the winner in a Premier League 2 clash at West Ham.
