Liverpool youngster Bobby Adekanye is preparing to join Serie A side Lazio on a free transfer at the end of the season.
According to the Liverpool Echo, the young Dutch winger will swap Anfield for Italy after becoming disillusioned with life on Merseyside.
It is being reported that the player is seeking a new challenge in his career and has now agreed pre-contract terms with Lazio.
In Italy, he will join up with former Liverpool midfielder Lucas Leiva, who joined the Serie A side after leaving Anfield.
Liverpool had been hoping to keep hold of Adekanye, with the winger highly-rated, but it is hard to see a natural path to the first-team squad for the player.
He arrived at the club with high expectations, but injuries and a real lack of consistency at acedemy level have held the player’s development back.
