Alex Cooper, who plays for Ross County, will move to Anfield after the clubs agreed a £100,000 fee.

But Rafael Benitez's Reds have beaten all the rivals and have given the teenager a three-and-a-half-year contract. His father said: "All his family are delighted Alex has been given the opportunity to sign for Liverpool.
