Liverpool Starlet 'Moving Closer' to Lazio Switch After Struggling for First-Team Opportunities

Liverpool prospect Bobby Adekanye is on the verge of joining Lazio on a free transfer at the end of the season.

The 20-year-old arrived from Barcelona in the summer of 2015 with a glowing reputation, but has struggled to break through into Jurgen Klopp's side since.

Now, according to Goal's Neil Jones, after growing disillusioned with life on Merseyside, Adekanye is edging closer to a move away from Anfield, with Lazio the most likely destination for the winger.

The report adds that a deal with the Serie A side is almost complete and that whilst he had another offer on the table, the youngster has chosen Italy as his preferred choice.
