Arsenal set to miss out on midfielder after Liverpool ‘hold talks’ with club

After seeing the impact of Dele Alli at Tottenham Hotspur this year, many clubs are now paying more attention in finding the next hidden gem.

One of the highly rated youngsters being tracked by many top clubs, is Ipswich youngster, Andre Dozzell.

The 16-year-old midfielder has been very impressive for Ipswich’s youth team this year and has gained much attention from Premier League clubs, namely Arsenal, Liverpool and Tottenham according to the Express. It seems Liverpool, however, are leading the race for the England under-17 international. Although he is contracted until 2018, it is believed a fee of £1.5 million could see him make the move to Anfield.

Since Klopp’s installment as Liverpool manager, he has put an emphasis on promoting youngsters, as shown by Sheyi Ojo and Kevin Stewart’s sudden rise to the first team at the weekend.

If the reports are believed to be true, it seems Arsenal have missed out on a talented prospect. Although the north London side have an abundance of central midfielders, at just 16, Dozzell is still an exciting prospect.
