Liverpool are not in the running to sign highly-rated Ghana teenager Abdul Fatawu Issahaku this summer.
Reports in Ghana over the weekend claimed the Reds had stolen a march in the race to snap up the 17-year-old attacking midfielder.
It was suggested Liverpool had swooped in to take the player from Ghanaian club Steadfast FC ahead of Bundesliga side Bayer Leverkusen.
However, the ECHO understands the Reds are not pursuing a deal for Issahaku at present.

Time for a lot of tall tales
no we signed him he's coming next year when he is 18
Yes we are
He's signed but will be on loan for Sporting Lisbon until he's 18, then he'll be able to get a work permit more easily.
Barcelona wants give Coutinho back, they should us Griezmann too
Teenager, he looks 30.😭
Who
You do know he's signed for us that's what local journalists are saying, but will be loan out to Sporting Lisbon.
Next hulk
Get it done
Sign him up asap
Common guys let's sign raphinha please
the echo is so bad.
YNWA ❤️❤️
Do not listen to this channel about tranfers after last year. Kept telling us we had no interest in Thiago and that’s not the first time they were wrong
In essence is that he will not feature at amfield next season?
Someone should clear my confusion pls
In klopp we trust
not in the running…lool anymore vids about players we are not signing
He’ll get his first chance to play in 2026. In the meantime, Klopp will play the usual 11 players until they got injured or drop dead from exhaustion…
🦁🦁🦁
He has signed, it is all over my country and I am Ghanaian. Liverpool Echo have bad links He would play at Sporting lisbon
