The Reds have signed a hot prospect from a somewhat chilly part of the world...
Liverpool have confirmed that they have completed the signing of Victor Palsson, an 18-year old striker, from Danish club AGF Arhus.
The Icelandic youngster is yet to make a senior appearance in the Danish Superliga, but has been attracting plaudits and attention from all over Europe and is tipped for a massive future. He has represented his country at Under-17 level.
Palsson has inked a deal that will keep him at Anfield until June 30 2011, and will train with Gary Ablett's reserve team at Liverpool's Melwood training ground.
Meanwhile, Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez (pictured) has confirmed that Martin Skrtel, Fernando Torres and Fabio Aurelio should all be fit to feature against Stoke City at the Britannia Stadium tomorrow, although Xabi Alonso's foot wound means that he is unlikely to play as he cannot currently wear football boots without discomfort.
"They can play. It depends on the other players but all three could start," said Benitez of Skrtel, Torres and Aurelio. "The competition for each position is good for the team. These are good players and big names, so the other players have to work really hard if they want to stay in the team.
"That is the difference between now and other seasons - we can change players without changing the level of the team."
