Liverpool have agreed to sign teenage striker Nikola Saric from Herfolge. All club and personal terms have been agreed and 17-year-old is set to sign the contract soon.

“It is a unique opportunity for me,” the Denmark Under-18 international informed Dagbladet Koge.

“I will train with the big names over there and there is time for me to develop at reserve level. I am very pleased with the development as it has been a very tough season for me.” he added

Sports Director Per Rud told the club’s official website, “We are pleased and proud that Nikola has gone to one of the world’s best football clubs. We would have liked to have earned more money from Nikola but his injury and the fact that his contract expired in the New Year made it difficult.

“Liverpool acted extremely well in all cases and knew all the details. They have been fair in the process and could’ve waited until the New Year but they will have him over now.”

Tottenham, Barcelona and Charlton were among the other clubs interested in signing Saric.
