Overview
- Adekoya confirmed the move by posting a contract-signing photo on Instagram with the caption "God's plan."
- The deal is Liverpool’s first addition of the January window and places the 19-year-old in the club’s youth setup rather than the first team.
- He is set to link up with Rob Page’s U21 squad and could feature as early as Friday’s match at Norwich, according to local reporting.
- Adekoya recently signed his first professional contract with Burnley in October 2025 and captained their U18s to the Professional Development League North title.
- The move fits a broader recruitment drive for young centre-backs and follows U21 loans and promotions that have created opportunities in defense.
