Liverpool have struck a £200,000 deal with Scottish club Falkirk for the signing of young defender Tony Gallacher.
The 18-year-old full-back spent a week on trial at the Kirkby Academy earlier this month and impressed to such an extent that the Reds moved quickly to secure his services on a permanent basis.
Gallacher will link up with Neil Critchley's under-23s rather than Jurgen Klopp's senior squad at Melwood and is viewed as one for the future.
