Leeds show interest in signing ‘Polish Lionel Messi’ from Liverpool academy
Leeds United and Birmingham City are reportedly interested in signing Liverpool youngster Mateusz Musialowski. The Polish prospect has been compared to Lionel Messi and has been making a name for himself in the Reds’ youth teams. Musialowski’s contract is expiring in the summer, making him an attractive prospect for potential suitors. Birmingham City, owned by Tom Brady, and Leeds United are among the clubs showing the most interest in the player’s signature. Liverpool academy coach Barry Lewtas has praised Musialowski for his improved consistency and all-round game. Musialowski has contributed six goals and two assists in 11 games for Liverpool’s U-23s team this season. Overall, he has played 80 games and scored 30 goals for the club’s pyramid. Musialowski has openly admitted that he models his game on Lionel Messi, and a goal he scored for Liverpool’s U-18s side demonstrated the similarities in their play. He hopes to continue improving and make a name for himself in the future.
