Once again the King comes up trumps. I like that we beat Real, Chelsea, Arsenal, Spurs and Everton to the lad.

I also hope that he's ace and comes good. How good would it be for Kenny to rub it in Fergies face with the lad being a Utd fan.

Hopefully Fergie will be dead by the time this kid comes good.

I have a mate whose lad plays for St Kevins.
I will ask him about O Hanlon.

I think O'Hanlon is definitely gonna be my hero at some point.
 
St Kevin's never produced a decent player!

Now if he was from "the farm" I'd take note 🙂

Damien Duff and Liam Brady did ok I thought
 
It was Little Sheik's Footy Club's end of season presentations tonight and a certain Mr Flanagan, who used to play for the same club was guest trophy hander outer. Fair play to him, he must have signed about 150 autographs. 6 lads were signed up for professional teams as well which is pretty good going.

Thank god someone else cottoned on.
 
LIVERPOOL’S commitment to recruiting the best young talent has been underlined further by the signing of Irish starlet Alex O’Hanlon.

Schoolboy O’Hanlon, 15, plays for Dublin’s fabled St Kevin’s Boys’ Club which launched the career of Liam Brady as well as Damien Duff, Stephen Carr and Ian Harte.

The left-back is rated as one of the most exciting talents to emerge from Ireland in years and has caused a stampede of interest among England’s elite, having spent time at Chelsea, Arsenal and Everton.

Manchester United hoped to sign him, having previously lured teenager Robert Brady from St Kevin’s. Brady, 19, no relation to Liam, was an unused substitute for United’s 3-2 Carling Cup win over Wolves in October but Liverpool have stolen a march on their rivals for a player who has been likened to Tottenham’s Gareth Bale.

O’Hanlon has visited Liverpool’s training ground Melwood and St Kevin’s will receive compensation in accordance with UEFA’s guidelines, which will rise depending on progress.

Suggestions they could net as much as £2million have been dismissed, but Brendan Bermingham, secretary of St Kevin’s Boys’ Club, said: “He is very highly thought of. He’s an excellent full-back and hopefully he might turn out like Gareth Bale.

“He’s got a really good attitude, quiet and unassuming. He’s just football, football, football.â€

Liverpool chairman Tom Werner stressed on Sunday’s flying visit to Merseyside for the game with Tottenham the importance of a strong academy set-up.

The emergence of Jonathan Flanagan, Martin Kelly, Jay Spearing and Jack Robinson has been a major plus point and Raheem Sterling, 16, and Connor Coady, 18, are set for first-team squad places next season.

Thats him with his Dad who drinks in my local.

He has trials everywhere over the past year or so its a big thing for him to have chosen us especially since his fathers a utd fan.
 
You can understand why he signed though.

7 players in England under 19s, 3 in under 21s, 3 in under 17s.

The youth is bright.

[/quote]Talked to my mate and apparently O Hanlon has signed a four year contract which will be worth to him a total of £1.2m broken down into a signing on fee of roughly £300k
with the rest made up in wages over the next four years. If he does well next year he is likely to be offered a new, more lucrative contract.
Mad money for a fifteen year old, isn't it.

Mad money for his parents.
 
Dalglish, meanwhile, is chasing West Brom’s talented teenager Jerome Sinclair.

The Reds chief has been seeking out up-and-coming players and the 14-year-old fits the bill.

In fact, the Kop’s spies rate Sinclair as highly as their own starlet, Raheem Sterling, 16.

Liverpool hope to agree a compensation deal with the Baggies for the midfielder, who would leap at the chance of moving to Anfield.
 
Anyone heard of a youth-team player called Beckford or Beckfield? Don't know his first name. He's the son of a friend of a friend, and I've been asked to look out for mentions of him, but don't think I've actually heard of him before. He's about 18 and has played for England in his age group.
