Former Barcelona youngster Bobby Adekanye reportedly intends to leave Liverpool.
Liverpool appear set to lose young winger Bobby Adekanye from their under-23 setup, report Goal.
The Reds signed Adekanye from Barcelona in 2015.
His contract is up at the end of the season and Goal report Adekanye has informed Liverpool he does not intend to sign a new deal.
He is said to be closing in on an agreement to sign with Serie A side Lazio.
Adekanye has scored five goals in 12 UEFA Youth League matches for Liverpool over the past two seasons.
Adekanye, 19, was born in Nigeria but has represented Holland at youth level.
This season he has played in nine under-23 games, scoring once and providing two assists.
While likely that Liverpool would have offered him a new deal, it was not guaranteed, and Adekanye faced an uphill struggle to crack the first team at Anfield.
A change of scene may do him good. Liverpool have enough talent coming through their youth system to cope with his departure.
