Ghanian wonderkid Abdul Fatawu Issahaku is on his way to Liverpool, his club chairman has announced.
Issahaku has become a rising star for Steadfast FC in the second tier of Ghanian football and for his national team's youth sides over recent seasons.
Bayer Leverkusen were regarded as favourites for the teen, but Steadfast president and owner Haruna Iddrisu says he's moving to Anfield.
“When I started negotiation for Abdul Issahaku Fatawu's move to abroad, it started from more than 1 million euros and this means if we get corporate sponsorships, we can do better," he told Football Ghana.
“We need to do more to make our football attractive and by doing that we get more hands-on board to sponsor our football because on weekends.
“Football is the business everywhere so I am pleading to the corporate world. I am doing Steadfast for the love of football and for the people of my home town."
The Reds have paid a fee in the region of £1.5million for the 17-year-old, who is said to have signed a five-year deal at Anfield.
But despite apparently signing the highly-rated star, Reds fans will not get an immediate glimpse of their side's new signing.
That is because Jurgen Klopp's men have reportedly sent him straight out on loan to Portuguese top-flight side Sporting CP.
