DONE DEAL: Liverpool youngster Sinclair signs for Watford

Watford have completed the signing of highly rated Liverpool striker Jerome Sinclair, according to a picture on his representatives' Instagram account.

Sinclair, who has been with Liverpool since he was 14, is out of contract with the Reds and has opted for a fresh challenge with Watford, inking a four-year deal at Vicarage Road.

The 19-year-old's move to the Hornets has been unveiled by his representatives, Colossal Sports Management, though neither club are yet to comment on the deal being completed as of yet.


Colossal Sports Management wrote on Instagram: “Proud to announce a brand new beginning for this young man... his aim is to try and achieve greatness and bring joy to the #watfordfc fans and take the club as high as possible... good luck on your new journey Jerome.”

Sinclair will officially join Watford on July 1 and his transfer fee is set to be decided by a Premier League tribunal as Liverpool are entitled to compensation.

Liverpool turned down a £1.5m bid from Watford in January and the tribunal fee is expected to be in excess of that, according to the Liverpool Echo.

Sinclair became the youngest debutant in Liverpool's history when coming off the bench to play against West Bromwich Albion in the League Cup back in 2012, aged 16.
