Man City sensation confirms he's joining Liverpool | OneFootball

There are some rare examples like Rico Lewis and Phil Foden but in general a lot of Manchester City products like Jadon Sancho, Liam Delap and Jeremie Frimpong have made their names and played their best football elsewhere.

The opposite is the case for Liverpool where the club regularly looks to promote talent from within. That's why the first-team has the likes of Conor Bradley, Curtis Jones, Rio Ngumoha and Trey Nyoni at the moment.

There's others following suit and it's clear there is a pathway for young players at Anfield, which is why City players are probably flocking to join the club's academy at the moment.

Earlier this year, Lucas Alford joined from City to link-up with the club's U15 side. Last season, Lucas Clarke was also snatched from City's academy and he now plays for the U18s.

There's another talented player to add to that list. City's U15 teenage sensation Alfie Dooley has confirmed on his Instagram page that he's going to be linking up with the Reds.

Dooley signs for Liverpool as a goalkeeper, having spent nine years at Manchester City. In that time, he's won back-to-back International Premier League tournaments at U13 and U12 level and he's been regarded as one of the club's top up and coming goalkeepers.

If anything, City are known for producing elite goalkeepers. Joe Hart, James Trafford and Kasper Schmeichel all developed at the club's academy.

But Dooley will have seen a better pathway for himself at Liverpool, who also has a great track record with goalkeepers at the moment.

Just take a look at how far Peter Gulacsi and Kamil Grabara have gone in their careers. Or Caoimhin Kelleher and Vitezslav Jaros, who is now a no.1 goalkeeper at Ajax.
