Liverpool have secured the signing of MK Don's highly-rated teenager Seyi Ojo.
The 14-year-old, who was also believed to have attracted the interest of Chelsea, has been snapped up by the Reds' academy.
Ojo earned two England caps at Under-16 level during their recent Victory Shield campaign, and his deal has been given the seal of approval by Dons chairman Peter Winkelman.
"This is the opportunity of a lifetime for Seyi and his parents which has proved far too difficult to turn down," he told the club's official website.
"There has been a lot of interest and speculation regarding Seyi which he coped with admirably.
"We are extremely proud to have Seyi in our record books as our first schoolboy to receive an international cap.
"Everyone at the club would like to wish Seyi the best luck in his future and we all look forward to the day he runs out at Anfield."
