Liverpool news: Jurgen Klopp wants Crystal Palace wonderkid Joseph Hungbo – report

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp is renowned for integrating academy players into his first-team, with the likes of Trent Alexander-Arnold and Dominic Solanke getting chances so far this term.

Solanke, 19, joined the Reds in the summer after his contract at Chelsea expired at the end of last season.

And now South London Press claim Liverpool have set their sights on another youngster in Crystal Palace attacker Hungbo.

The 17-year-old can play on either flank or in behind the striker.

Hungbo burst onto the scene at Crystal Palace two years ago, scoring on his Under-18 debut with a sweet left-footed volley.

Hungbo is eligible to play for both England and Nigeria and attracted scouts from both nations during Palace’s Under-16 match against Bolton on Saturday.

On Palace’s website, the club describe Hungbo as: “The direct left winger came through the Oasis Shirley Park programme and has an eye for goal, helped by his explosive pace.”
