Calvin Ramsay joining Liverpool is looking imminent.
The Reds have already snapped up one Scottish teenager in the form of Ben Doak and it looks like they’re about to add another.
Fabrizio Romano tweeted on Sunday that Liverpool were set to sign the 18-year-old in what’ll be an £8.5 million deal.

According to The Daily Mail, though, the Anfield outfit will only be paying around £5 million of the fee up front.
The report has added that the Merseysiders wanted to only pay £4 million overall but accepted Aberdeen’s final valuation on the basis that they could pay the remaining £3.5 million in add-ons.
Ramsay will be an understudy to Trent Alexander-Arnold, according to the same publication, but Bologna haven’t thrown in the towel regarding their chances of signing him just yet.
It’s previously been reported that he wants to play for Jurgen Klopp, however, and that should be enough to win the race for Liverpool, you would imaigne.
Aberdeen chairman Dave Cormack has previously labelled the player as ‘elite‘ and it’ll be fascinating to see how he develops with the Premier League giants.
Calvin Ramsay joining Liverpool is an excellent career choice, even if Alexander-Arnold is still only 23 himself and likely to be the Reds’ right-back for years to come.
The education he’ll receive under Klopp and his coaching staff will be second to none and he’ll no doubt develop into a much better player.
