Latest under our scout's gaze is Liverpool youngster Dani Pacheco - recommended by Sky Sports reader Lee Kelly.

The scout reports...

Liverpool forward Dani Pacheco is tipped for a big future in the game after catching the eye at Anfield.

The Reds snapped up the talented forward from Spanish giants Barcelona in 2007 much to the dismay of the Spanish giants.

Pacheco caught the eye during last season's pre-season and his skills have made him a big fan among the Liverpool supporters.

The 18-year-old is a regular in Liverpool's reserves and he is expected to feature more in the first-team next season.

A clever forward, Pacheco makes up for his lack of height and power with a superb touch and eye for goal.

Pacheco is more than just a goalscorer as he is also a creator of goals with his vision and awareness.

The scout says...

If he continues to progress Pacheco could find himself playing a more prominent role in the Liverpool first-team next season.

Pacheco is earning himself a big reputation in the reserves and the Spaniard is certainly one to keep an eye on.
