Ryan Sessegnon is leaning towards penning new terms with Fulham.
The Times says Liverpool are among a number of teams chasing the 16-year-old Fulham sensation and had hoped to sign him this summer.
But it now looks likely that Sessegnon will instead stay on and sign a new four-year deal at Craven Cottage.
Should he decide to leave, however, Liverpool would be at the front of the queue.
