Liverpool boss Benitez closes in on Danish teen prodigy Kohlert
Liverpool are close to signing 16-year-old Danish starlet Nikolaj Kohlert after the Esbjerg midfielder's agent announced he is meeting officials at Anfield to conclude negotiations.
The player, who has yet to play a senior match, would join the Liverpool academy if the transition goes smoothly.
His agent Allan Nielsen said: 'I can say as much as there will be a meeting in Liverpool today (Friday). The only thing remaining is the personal contract.
'I see no immediate problems in the clubs agreeing. This is a fantastic opportunity for a 16-year-old. He is ready both as a person and as a footballer. He will probably start in the academy on a scholarship before he turns 17.
'After that it will be the reserve team and then he will get a professional contract for three years with an additional option for Liverpool.'
