Manchester City reportedly considering move for Liverpool starlet

Jurgen Klopp may need to put his powers of persuasion to the test early on in his Liverpool tenure, with teenage star Jerome Sinclair linked with a move away.

The forward, who became Liverpool's youngest ever player at 16 years and 6 days when he made his debut in 2012, has emerged as a target for Manchester City. Sinclair is out of contract in the summer, and has also been courted by Luis Suarez's former club Groningen. Now 19, the Birmingham-born player has seen his progress hit by injuries, but made his Premier League debut under Brendan Rodgers at the tail-end of last season. The Daily Mirror report that City have sent scouts to watch Liverpool's under-21s, potentially with a view to moving for another Liverpool youngster following the big-money signing of Raheem Sterling. It is thought that the Reds opened contract talks with Sinclair over the summer, but were unable to tie him down to a longer deal.
