Liverpool Sign 16-Year-Old Spain Based Nigerian, Bobby Adekanye

Liverpool have continued their aggressive signing spree by securing the services of highly-rated Barcelona starlet 16-year-old Bobby Adekanye – full name Habeeb Omobolaji Adekanye.

Adekanye was born in Ibadan, Nigeria, currently based in Spain but was raised in Holland from age four.

He has been in quasi limbo being a member of the famous La Masia Academy, which was in the center of the dispute between Barca and Fifa over the recruitment of youngsters.

The 16-year-old who has drawn comparisons in Holland with Bayern Munich forward Arjen Robben is also being chased by the Dutch FA who wants to secure him for their country ahead of lacing up for the Super Eagles of Nigeria.
