Dani Pacheco is excited about his move to Liverpool.

The striker, 16, is joining Liverpool from Barcelona and was given a tour of Anfield and the club's training facilities by Rafa Benitez this week after the youngster earlier had signed a three-year contract.

Liverpool beat Chelsea to land Dani, with the Blues' Spanish scout, Juan Cruz Sol, recommending him to football chief Frank Arnesen.

"I am happy and excited about the chance to play for Liverpool," said Dani, who is also immediately taking English lessons to accelerate his acclimatisation.
