Liverpool have invited Coventry City defender Cian Harries to train with them ahead of a possible transfer.
The promising 19-year-old has been compared in style to former Liverpool captain Alan Hansen for his willingness to step out of defence with the ball and his composure under pressure.
He has made 14 appearances for Coventry's first team this season and signed a contract extension in November which ties him to the club until 2020.
He had a brief loan spell with Cheltenham Town last January and Liverpool scouts have picked up on his potential.
