The 18-year-old is a highly rated prospect at Craven Cottage, having become a first-team regular for the club this season in what has been a difficult campaign for the London club, who were relegated from the Premier League last term.

It seems like Fulham could now face a challenge to keep their prized asset at the club, with Liverpool lurking and readying a summer bid to sign the promising winger to add to their collection of hot prospects at Anfield.

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers has shown his willingness to give young players a chance, with Raheem Sterling notably starring under his management, while Jordan Ibe looks another young Englishman set to break through in the Reds’ first-team.

According to the Metro, Roberts is the latest on the Merseyside giants’ radar ahead of the next transfer window.
