Liverpool complete second signing of the summer hours after transfer deadline passes

Liverpool have completed their second signing of the summer shortly after the transfer deadline closed.

Arne Slot welcomed Italian Federico Chiesa just days ago as the Merseysiders bolstered their ranks.

But with some supporters suggesting more could have been done, Liverpool have acted quickly to bring in another player.

According to reports from the Liverpool Echo, the Reds have signed 16-year-old Alvin Ayman from fellow Premier League side Wolverhampton Wanderers.

The 16-year-old began his career with Bradford City before moving to Molineux to continue his development.

Since then, the wonderkid has impressed Liverpool so much so they have parted with £2 million to sign him.

Although the club are yet to announced the signing, Ayman has confirmed that his move to Anfield has been completed after taking to Instagram to share his message.

Posting a picture of him signing his contract, the 16-year-old wrote: “New beginnings Liverpool FC. Would like to say a huge thank you to all the staff at Wolves for helping me develop over the past 2 years. God is good.”

Transfer guru Fabrizio Romano reported the former Bantams man has signed a five-year deal at Liverpool but the full details of his move are yet to be established.

The Reds have won both of their games so far under new boss Slot and travel to Old Trafford tomorrow to take on Manchester United.

“I haven’t experienced this game yet but the players have experienced it many, many times,” Slot said ahead of this weekend's clash at the Theatre of Dreams.

“We have to not only prepare them for the tactic part but I want to know about what you can expect and how you should play in the best possible way, so that it doesn’t happen that the crowd is going completely crazy.

“Having experienced at Ipswich the atmosphere around that game, I am expecting this to be even more and United have shown last season as well that every time the game was on the line or there were hard or tough moments for them they could step up.”
