The Official Liverpool FC Thread


The Infamous

Liverpool are set to win the race to sign Charlton starlet Jonjo Shelvey, skysports.com understands.

The 18-year-old midfielder has long been touted as one of the finest young prospects in England.

He has previously turned down Chelsea's overtures, whilst Tottenham, Arsenal and West Ham are also known to have been keen on securing his services.

However, skysports.com now understands that Liverpool have indeed won the battle for his services.

Despite the ongoing uncertainty at Anfield over boss Rafa Benitez and the club's owners, they have managed to seal a deal for Shelvey.

It is understood that the teenager will travel to Merseyside early next week to undergo a medical before completing a summer switch.

Shelvey will finish the season with Charlton, who he still hopes to guide back into the Championship.

Bought him on FM

Still not had a run in the first team yet so can't say whether he will be a flop or not

"But we have been working for years; I was trying to sign Gareth Barry before and Glen Johnson was the same idea - we were trying to bring in British players with passion," added Benitez.

"Players who could feel what Liverpool means for them. Shelvey is one of these and we have two or three names ready so we will try to do the best for the club."

Yup.

Premier League? That's a big step from League One isn't it?

A massive step, particularly when he has been reduced to a bit-part role at Charlton over the past few months. But Sodje insists: 'His style of play isn't really suited to the hustle and bustle of League One. His game is more suited to the top league where he will receive more protection.'
