Liverpool In Pole Position To Sign Swedish Wonderkid

According to reports on Insidefutbol.com, Liverpool are in pole position to sign exciting Swedish teenager William Sheriff.

The 15-year-old AIK Solna player has been hailed as a future star by the club and it is thought scouts from around Europe have flocked to Stockholm to watch him in action.

Italian giants AC Milan and Inter Milan are also both thought to be interested, but Liverpool is the player's preferred move should he leave AIK.

It has been claimed that Sheriff had the chance to sign for Liverpool in the past, but opted to sign for AIK from local club Gefle IF in August to remain in Sweden.

However, the Reds have reportedly been keeping a close eye on the young midfielder's progress and have firmed up their interest due to the interest of the Milan clubs.

The Sierra-Leonne born Sherif is progressing well at AIK and the club fear they will lose him sooner rather than later.

And Liverpool are reportedly ready to pounce and are expected to make an approach in January.
