Liverpool managing director Christian Purslow said: "The success of our academy is vital to the future stalling of homegrown youth and we have made clear that we will continue to invest in outstanding youngsters from overseas.[1]
"Raheem is a very exciting young English player whose progress was being closely monitored by many other leading clubs and I'm delighted he's joining us.[1]
"Frank McParland (academy director) and his staff have done a great job in bringing him to Liverpool."[1]
