Liverpool agree terms with Celtic academy centre-back Dara JakiemiLiverpool have agreed terms with Celtic academy centre-back Dara Jakiemi, according to the Secret Scout. Liverpool have always sought to bring young players to the Anfield club and the Reds have lured the Celtic teenage sensation away from the Parkhead club. The Secret Scout – a reputable source for youth football and transfer news – has claimed on social media platform X (formerly Twitter) that the 15-year-old was excluded from international games this week due to his impending move to join the Reds.🚨 EXCL – Liverpool have agreed terms with 15-Year-Old Dara Jakiemi from Celtic. The young centre-back who has played for Scotland wasn’t included in games this week against Spain as prepares his move to Liverpool. 🔴#LFC#liverpoolpic.twitter.com/dtrWsX919M— TheSecretScout (@TheSecretScout_) December 6, 2025Jakiemi has impressed for Celtic at youth level and was widely tipped to break into the first-team of the Scottish Premiership club in the near future. However, he will now be linking up with Liverpool and hope to establish himself as a Premier League star in a couple of years from now. The Reds signed 17-year-old attacker Rio Ngumoha from the Chelsea academy last year, and he has since made his debut for their first-team under manager Arne Slot. Brexit and the Premier League’s profitability and sustainability rules (PSR) have made home-grown players valuable, and while Jakiemi does not currently qualify as one, he would if he stays at Liverpool until he is 21.
