Nigeria U-20 international footballer, Taiwo Awoniyi is on the verge of completing a move to Liverpool, according to reports emanating from England. The 17-year-old attacker attracted interests from Manchester City, FC Porto, Monaco as well as Liverpool following his exploits for Nigerian youth teams. Awoniyi, who plays here in Nigeria with Imperial Soccer Academy, is expected to sign a professional contract with the Anfield club once he turns 18 on Wednesday.
