Hamilton Academical have confirmed Liverpool have tabled an
offer for their in-demand starlet Jamie McCarthy.
The 16-year-old is one of the most exciting young talents in
Scotland and recently became the club's youngest ever scorer
following his Scottish Cup strike against Livingston.
Reading are favourites to land McCarthy as he is training with the
Premiership outfit, but Liverpool are unwilling to let The Royals
have it all their own way.
Hamilton boss Billy Reid has confirmed The Reds have given the
youngster food for thought, but as yet the playmaker has not
decided where his future lies.
"Liverpool have made an offer for Jamie but he has not refused or
accepted it as yet," confirmed Reid.
"Reading are a well-run team as are Liverpool. We're not in a hurry
to sell.
"He will take it as it comes and make the right decision for
himself."
