Liverpool Keeping Tabs On Promising Nigerian Winger Likened To Adama Traore

Published: November 11, 2020

Allnigeriasoccer.com can exclusively report that Premier League champions Liverpool are keeping tabs on promising Shrewsbury Town winger Nigel Aris with a view to a transfer in the near future.

The Anglo-Nigerian's performances for Shrewsbury Town youth teams is being analyzed by Liverpool before they make a final decision on whether to table a bid for the 17-year-old.

Aris has made inroads since joining Shrewsbury Town from Watford in the summer of 2019 and his professional debut is on the horizon.

Making the matchday squads against Newcastle United and Crewe Alexandra in the EFL Trophy this season and being appointed U18s captain of The Blues are a testament to his huge potential.

He has been described as a winger who is technically quick, good in 1v1 situations and very aggressive on the ball, and has been likened to Wolverhampton Wanderers star Adama Traore due to his playing style and physical attributes.

Aris attended a Nigeria U17 training camp in Abuja in 2019 but didn't make the cut for the U17 World Cup though the Golden Eaglets coaches tipped him for a bright future.
