Jerome Sinclair is set to sign for Watford on July 1 after his Liverpool contract expires, according to Sky sources.

The 19-year-old striker has struggled to break into the first-team under Jurgen Klopp and his predecessor Brendan Rodgers, and has made only one start for the Reds.

Liverpool would be due compensation due his home-grown status. Sinclair moved to Anfield as a 15-year-old from West Brom in 2011 and has made a total of five appearances, scoring in the FA Cup game against Exeter in January.

He is one of a number of Liverpool youngsters out of contract this summer including Alex O'Hanlon, whom Sky sources recently revealed was of interest to a number of Championship clubs.
