Liverpool have confirmed the capture of 19-year-old French
midfielder Damien Plessi from Lyon.
The youngster will initially join the reserve ranks at Melwood and
the club's academy after Reds boss Rafa Benitez swooped for the
player on transfer deadline day.
Benitez, speaking on the club's website, said: "He is a good
player, big and strong, and we're sure he'll do well for us.
"He's only a young boy with plenty of time to work on his game but
it depends on his progress how quickly he can force his way into
the first team."
