Liverpool are closing in on the signing of Boca Juniors
youngster Emiliano Insua after he arrived in England to tie up a
loan move.
A fee of around $150,000 (just under £80,000) is due to be paid for
the loan arrangement with the option of a permanent purchase next
year.
The left back is to watch Liverpools UEFA Champions League
assignment with PSV Eindhoven on Wednesday night to get a flavour
of Anfield.
The deal was set up in October and prompted some outcry in
Argentina with so many of their young talents being lured to Europe
at an early age.
Boca are resigned to losing the 17-year-old and also negotiated the
sale of Sebastian Ruscelleda to a group of businessmen on
Wednesday.
The South American outfit are also expected to sell Fernando Gago
to Real Madrid in January.
