Liverpool-linked starlet Sebastiano Esposito reportedly wants to continue playing with Inter Milan.

According to FC Inter News, the talented 17-year-old is keen to earn a long-term contract with the club, which can only be offered when he turns 18 next summer.

Esposito, who debuted for Inter’s first-team earlier this year, has been on the radar of some big clubs including the Reds, Manchester United, Borussia Dortmund and Paris Saint-Germain.

Until the Italy U19 international becomes of age, Inter plan to offer their ‘jewel’ performance-based bonuses.

So far this season Esposito has made five appearances under Antonio Conte, and is awaiting his first goal for the club.

Last term, he banged in 31 for the academy, making it easy to see why he is so coveted.

TBR’s view – Liverpool lure strangely not enough

Liverpool are obviously a huge club and Jurgen Klopp is a manager many young players would love to work under.

But clearly Esposito is settled at Inter, and he looks to be knocking on Conte’s door for playing opportunities.

The Champions League holders are a tantalising prospect, but it seems they may have their work cut out to land one of Italian football’s brightest prospects.
