Liverpool are reportedly close to signing Crewe Alexandra youngster Dan Smith.
The 16-year-old had also attracted the interest of Manchester City, but according to Crewe spokesman Rob Wilson, Smith will move to Anfield.
"We are naturally disappointed that Dan has decided to sign for Liverpool. The club has received an undisclosed fee and future add-ons but we would have much preferred to have seen him play for our first team," Wilson told talkSPORT.
The fee is understood to be in the region of £300,000.
