LIVERPOOL continue to compile a dossier on Sheffield United’s teenage striker Ryan One.
Kop spies like the look of the powerful Scot, 18, who has already made it into Blades’ promotion-chasing squad.
One is the type of physical frontman Liverpool lack in their ranks of emerging talent - and they are poised to move for him.
Blades see One as a player for the future so would look for a big fee if Anfield chiefs do come calling.
The teenager spent his early career north of the border at Hamilton, before joining United in 2023.
He made his debut for the club away at Arsenal last season, before the Blades dropped back to the Championship.
The powerful striker has since featured 10 times for Chris Wilder's side, catching the eye of scouts from Merseyside.
One netted his first goal for the club in a 2-1 win over Bristol City at the start of November.
The son of former Scottish lower-league striker Armand One, Ryan has already impressed on the international stage.
He was included in Archie Gemmill's Scotland under-21 squad back in October, getting minutes against Belgium and Kazakhstan.
One said: "I didn’t expect it at all because I’d been selected for the Under-19s but it was a great feeling.
“The standard in training has been really good.
"But that’s what you’d expect with so many of these players playing first-team football.
"I’ve just tried to keep up with it but I think I’ve done well."
Meanwhile, Derby have joined the growing list of clubs keen to take forward Jayden Danns on loan if Liverpool clear the move.
The promising striker, 18, has been prolific at youth level for the club and has previously been linked with a move to Wayne Rooney's Plymouth.
