Liverpool close in on Will Hughes?

Liverpool are reportedly close to signing Derby County youngster Will Hughes.

The Reds recently sent Andre Wisdom on loan to the Rams, and the good relationship between the two clubs has put the Anfield side in the driving seat to land Hughes, according to The People.

Derby value the England Under-21 international at around £15m, and they hope to have the teenager loaned back to them should he transfer in January.

Manchester City and Manchester United are also said to be interested in Hughes.
