Boothroyd bags Reds youngster

Northampton Town have signed Liverpool youngster Toni Silva on a month's loan. Silva has yet to make the breakthrough into the Liverpool first-team, but is a regular in the club's reserves. The 18-year-old winger is highly-rated at Anfield and the club have decided to loan him out in order to get some first-team action under his belt. Silva joined Liverpool in the summer of 2009 from Benfica and he is tipped to push for a first-team place in the near future. Cobblers boss Aidy Boothroyd has moved to bring in the Portuguese starlet as he looks to bolster his attacking options with Northampton currently rock bottom of League Two.
