Liverpool line up summer bid for 17-year-old Leeds midfielder Archie Gray with the Yorkshire club placing a £50m price tag on the rising star

Liverpool are preparing a summer bid for Leeds midfield player Archie Gray in a move that could cost them over £40million.

The 17-year-old has emerged as one of the stars of the Championship this season, playing in all but one of Leeds' games since making his professional debut on the opening day of the campaign.

Gray has been compared to Liverpool's Trent Alexander-Arnold due to his athleticism and ability to play in midfield and at right-back.

The teenager was named on Leeds' bench for a Premier League game against Arsenal when he was just 16 two years ago, and was a regular substitute under Marcelo Bielsa and Javi Gracia, but was not given his debut under Daniel Farke took over manager this season.
