Liverpool interested in Wolverhampton Wanderers youngster Owen Otasowie

Liverpool are interested in 18-year-old Wolverhampton Wanderers defender Owen Otasowie, according to the Mirror (h/t Sky Sports).

The 18-year-old can play as a defensive midfielder but has done well as a centre-back this season.

The US youngster has featured in several Premier League 2 games this season and also in the EFL Trophy too.

Arsenal are also keen on Otasowie, according to the report, and was promoted from the U18 side to the U23 Wolves side recently.

Otasowie has a lot of potential and it will be interesting to see if he is on the move.

Liverpool signing more young players?

The Reds signed a couple of young players in the summer, and it will be interesting to see if we make a move for the Wolves starlet too.

Liverpool have a few quality young defenders on their books, but we can always do with more players with potential.

Ki-Jana Hoever has a bright future at Anfield. However, Sepp van den Berg joined in the summer and will improve in the coming months.

Harvey Elliott, Caoimhin Kelleher and Curtis Jones are the others who have impressed in our Carabao Cup games.

Jurgen Klopp has seen two youngsters become first-teamers at Liverpool during his time.
