Liverpool agree deal for 18-year-old striker Djylian N’Guessan
Fabrizio Romano reports Liverpool and St Etienne have an agreement to sign the 18-year-old French striker, with medicals approved.
Liverpool are moving forward with a deal for the future attack of the club, agreeing to sign Djylian N’Guessan, an 18-year-old French striker from St Etienne, according to Fabrizio Romano.
Deal in place for 2027
The report indicates the move is set for the summer of 2027. Romano also states Liverpool already received authorisation to proceed with medical examinations, and that the process is also cleared on the player side.
Another long-term signing
This development fits Liverpool’s wider “next steps” approach in the transfer market. The club has also reportedly completed the signing of Lucca Brughmans (an 18-year-old goalkeeper from Genk), planned to arrive with the same forward-looking timetable.
At this stage, the key point is that an agreement is in place and the medical procedures are cleared. The remaining question is the final contractual confirmation once the process is formally concluded ahead of the planned June 2027 arrival.
