Liverpool have completed the signing of teenager Bobby Adekanye from Barcelona.
The 16-year-old announced the move on his Instagram page, where he posted a photo of himself at Liverpool.  

Adekanye has been on loan at PSV Eindhoven and was one of five transfers to Barcelona's youth system that were banned from playing for the club in a clampdown by FIFA last summer over claims they had been signed illegally.

Born in Nigeria, Adekanye moved to Holland when he was four to live in Amsterdam with his family.

Now 16, he would have been able to begin playing for Barcelona in January.
