Liverpool are set to reconfirm the signing of England U20 sensation of Nigerian descent Dominic Solanke in the coming days.

The former Chelsea wonderkid was pictured at Liverpool's training ground on Tuesday, and it is thought the striker was at Melwood to finalize his switch to the Reds.

Liverpool had offered three million pounds for Solanke but his stock has risen after helping the Young Lions clinch the Fifa U20 World Cup, and winning the Golden Ball, awarded to the best player at the tournament.

The Professional Football Compensation Committee will meet this month to decide the true valuation of the player.

Everton, Sunderland, Arsenal, West Ham, Rangers and Celtic were strongly interested in Solanke before Liverpool won the race for his signature.
