Liverpool have bolstered their defensive options with the arrival of Oludare Olufunwa, who will join up with the club's U21s.
The 20-year-old was handed a trial on Merseyside and has subsequently been signed for nothing after his release by Southampton. Olufunwa was at the Saints for over a decade but will now look to continue his career in the north west.
He played in Sunday's 3-0 defeat to Manchester City alongside Jarell Quansah as the Red began their Premier 2 season. Olufunwa will be battling for a start with the likes of Lee Jonas and Terence Miles. U21s boss Barry Lewtas had seen a host of his defensive options leave which had left him light.
