Liverpool Snatch 16-Year-Old Wonderkid Alvin Ayman from Wolves in £2m Deal
It’s been a whirlwind summer for Liverpool, and it’s showing no signs of slowing down. Just hours after the transfer deadline passed, the Reds have completed their second signing of the summer, and it’s a real statement of intent.
The Deal
According to reports from the Liverpool Echo, the Reds have signed 16-year-old Alvin Ayman from Wolverhampton Wanderers for a fee of £2 million. The young defender began his career at Bradford City before making the switch to Molineux, where he impressed enough to catch the eye of Liverpool boss Arne Slot.
The Transfer
Ayman has confirmed the move on his Instagram page, sharing a picture of him signing his contract with the caption: "New beginnings Liverpool FC. Would like to say a huge thank you to all the staff at Wolves for helping me develop over the past 2 years. God is good."
The Details
Transfer guru Fabrizio Romano has reported that Ayman has signed a five-year deal at Liverpool, but the full details of his move are yet to be confirmed.
What’s Next?
The Reds are already making waves under new boss Slot, with two wins from two games. They’ll look to continue that momentum when they travel to Old Trafford to take on Manchester United tomorrow.
Slot’s Thoughts
Speaking ahead of the clash with the Red Devils, Slot said: "I haven’t experienced this game yet but the players have experienced it many, many times. We have to not only prepare them for the tactic part but I want to know about what you can expect and how you should play in the best possible way, so that it doesn’t happen that the crowd is going completely crazy."
The Verdict
Liverpool’s signing of Ayman is a major coup, and a sign that they’re committed to building a bright future. The 16-year-old has already shown promising signs at Wolves, and he’ll be looking to make an instant impact at Anfield.
