According to The Sun, Liverpool are ready to try and prise Morgan Gibbs-White away from Wolves as the young star basks in U17 World Cup glory with England.

According to the report, Wolves cannot offer the young player a senior contract until he is 18 and so until that point it is easier for clubs to come in and swoop for them.

Liverpool might be looking to do just that, then, with them already having Rhian Brewster from the England side that won the U17 trophy a few weeks ago.

It's thought a £5 million fee could be paid in compensation which seems quite a bit of money for a young player and so we've been thinking about the pros and cons of this potential deal for Wolves.

With that in mind, then, here are two of each - starting with the first pro of such a move...

 Pro 1: Good money

£5 million for a player who is not near the first team on a regular basis looks like a deal you'd approve straightaway.

Despite Wolves' strong financial position, that money could be reinvested in getting in a decent player for the squad for either the Championship or, if all goes well, the Premier League next season.

It's a great price.

 Con 1: He has talent

There must be something about him if he's gone to an U17 World Cup and won it and so Wolves would surely rather see if he can make it with them.

With the club possessing some decent young players already, they'd surely like to see the next batch come through and complement that.

They've got the ambition of becoming a force again and keeping your best young stars is a key part to that.

 Pro 2: Might not even make it

He's got good talent at the moment but there is a long way for him to go and that is what we need to remember.

Young players at this level do not always translate into top senior stars and so Liverpool would be taking a gamble on signing him.

Wolves, meanwhile, might end up having this as a blessing in disguise. Maybe.

 Con 2: Don't want selling reputation

Wolves are one of the most upwardly mobile teams in English football at the moment and it is clear that their ambition is to get in and stay in the Premier League.

They'll need to show that they are serious about keeping both senior and young stars, then, and so sanctioning this deal would undermine that a bit.

It would be less of a negative impact than a senior player going though, obviously.
