Liverpool have already negotiated the first option to sign Birmingham City wonderkid Demarai Gray, according to reports.

Gray is one of the most sought after young players around and has been linked with the likes of Arsenal, Tottenham and Southampton.

But Bleacher Report explains that Liverpool have agreed a deal with Birmingham to have the first option to sign Gray when he moves.

It means that Liverpool can snap up the 19-year-old ahead of anybody else, even if another team agrees terms with him first.

Gray has been in great form again this season and it seems only a matter of time before he plays his football in the Premier League.
