Liverpool youngster Kieran Morrison is on the verge of signing a fresh deal with the Reds, and this is undoubtedly positive news for the Merseyside giants as he had been attracting attention from other clubs.
As per the information provided by Fabrizio Romano, Morrison’s new contract is close to being finalized. However, English and German clubs had also shown interest in him, indicating that he is already well-known and highly regarded elsewhere.
Speaking exclusively to the transfer news expert, it was revealed that Liverpool’s plans for Morrison regarding a potential first-team role or a loan spell are still uncertain. These decisions will likely be made later, as the club is soon to appoint a new manager and sporting director.
“Liverpool talent Kieran Morrison, who was linked with a move away last summer, is now set to commit to a new three-year deal at the club. The talented young midfielder, born in 2006, has reached a verbal agreement for the extension. The official announcement will follow after the necessary paperwork has been reviewed,” stated Romano.
“Prior to this agreement, clubs from England and Germany had expressed interest in signing him, making Liverpool’s move to secure his future a wise one. As for what comes next, whether he will be given an opportunity in the first team or sent out on loan, it remains unclear. We will have to wait until next season, under the guidance of the new manager and director, to see what decisions they make regarding loans and similar arrangements. For now, the priority was to secure his contract extension, and that has been achieved.”
