Bobby Adekanye has stunned Liverpool management by agreeing a move to Italy, it has been claimed.
The exciting Dutch attacker has been tipped for big things by Liverpool's coaching staff.
However, Goal says Adekanye has rejected Liverpool's attempts to open talks about a new deal - with his agent ignoring their calls.
Instead, it's suggested, Junior Minguella has agreed a deal on Adekanye's behalf with Lazio. The Romans had first made contact in November and negotiations quickly accelerated.
The decision has shocked Reds staff, where they have just been putting together a career plan for the attacker.
However, they now face losing Adekanye to Lazio at season's end.
