Liverpool academy star set for summer exit as PL club makes transfer approach

One of Liverpool’s brightest academy prospects is attracting strong interest ahead of the summer transfer window.

Kieran Morrison, the 18-year-old midfielder, has caught the attention of several clubs with his impressive performances at the youth level.

Morrison is highly rated at Liverpool, having joined from Manchester United at U14 level.

Since then, he has grown into a key figure within the academy, consistently standing out with his talent.

His development has been closely monitored by academy staff, with U-21 coach Barry Lewtas saying ‘brilliant presser‘ praising his pressing ability earlier this year.

Despite his steady rise, Morrison has yet to break into the senior squad. He’ll turn 19 later this year, and with no first-team debut in sight, he now finds himself at a crossroads.

Transfer interest mounts as Morrison faces key decision over Liverpool exit

Liverpool moved to secure his future with a professional contract in April 2024, reportedly running until 2027, but growing interest from elsewhere may now influence the next steps in his career.

Wolves are reportedly the favourites to sign Morrison, standing out among several Premier League and European clubs that have expressed strong interest in the talented midfielder, as confirmed by Fabrizio Romano.

Fabrizio Romano tweeted: “Understand Wolves have now approached Liverpool for 18-year-old highly rated talent Kieran Morrison.”

“ Wolves have genuine interest, as he’s on their shortlist with more clubs around Europe also keen.”

This shows Wolves’ serious interest in Morrison and suggests that a move there could offer him a clearer pathway to regular first-team football.

Whether he stays to fight for a breakthrough at Anfield or seeks opportunities with Wolves or clubs across Europe, Morrison’s journey will be one to watch in the coming days.
