BREAKING: Liverpool Agree Deal to Sign 40-Goal Forward – Here We Go
Liverpool have reached an agreement to sign highly-rated striker Will Wright, who scored over 40 goals for Salford City’s academy last season. The 17-year-old is one of the most exciting young forwards in England and has already made four first-team appearances, including a cameo against Manchester City in the FA Cup — a rare feat for a 16-year-old.
While most attention has been on Liverpool’s high-profile pursuit of Alexander Isak, the Reds have also been active behind the scenes. Sporting director Richard Hughes, currently in Tokyo, has been working on several transfer fronts — including finding a replacement for Luis Diaz, bolstering the defence, and negotiating outgoings like Harvey Elliott and Tyler Morton.
One area of focus has been adding elite youth talent to the academy, and Wright fits that mold perfectly. He is a tall, quick, and clinical striker — attributes that align with Arne Slot’s attacking philosophy.
Earlier reports indicated that Arsenal were close to securing Wright’s signature, making Liverpool’s chances appear slim. However, in a major twist, Liverpool have had a bid accepted, according to DaveOCKOP, bringing them right back into the race.
The Reds are now hopeful of convincing Wright to choose Anfield over the Emirates. The decision ultimately rests with the player, but this sudden development signals a strong push from Liverpool to secure one of England’s most prolific young scorers.
All eyes now turn to Wright’s final decision — a potential coup in the making for Liverpool’s future.
