Liverpool to strike transfer deal to sign Wolves defender Yaya Toure loves for £800,000

Liverpool are poised to sign 14-year-old Wolves wonderkid Harvey Owen, a player who Yaya Toure rates highly.

The Reds will finalise an £800,000 deal with their Premier League rivals, according to reports, to continue their streak of snapping up some of Britain's finest young talent. Last summer, Liverpool signed Celtic hotshot Ben Doak for £600,000 when he was just 16.

Now Wolves defender Owen is in line to follow him to Anfield, with former Manchester City and Barcelona powerhouse Toure one of his many plaudits. As revealed by Wolves academy coach Wes Hughes, Toure - now working in Tottenham 's academy - took a liking to the young centre-back during a recent clash between their youth sides.
