Liverpool sign Calvin Ramsay from Aberdeen

Liverpool have completed the signing of Scotland Under-21 defender Calvin Ramsay from Aberdeen, subject to international clearance, reports Reuters.

The 18-year-old joins the Premier League club on a "long-term contract" in a deal believed to be worth an initial £4million.

He was named the Scottish Football Writers' Association's Young Player of the Year for the 2021-22 season, in addition to being shortlisted for the PFA Scotland Young Player of the Year award.

"I'm just buzzing and it's a dream come true really to be here," Ramsay told the Reds' website.

"It was a dream come true to play for Aberdeen, and now to be at one of the biggest, if not the biggest club in the world, it's a massive achievement and I'm looking forward to trying to show the fans what I've got."

Ramsay could eventually cost Liverpool up to £6.5million due to appearance-related add-ons.

The right-back progressed through the youth ranks at Aberdeen, making his senior debut in March 2021 and playing 39 times in total, scoring once.
