Liverpool grab first option for Derby super-starlet Will Hughes

Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers has clinched an agreement for Derby County star Will Hughes. The Mirror says Rodgers has agreed a 'first option' deal for Derby's brilliant youngster Hughes.

Rodgers will get the chance to buy the midfielder - seen as Steven Gerrard's long-term successor - as part of a pact with the Rams.

The Kop chief has agreed to let England under-21 defender Andre Wisdom go to Derby on loan for the rest of the season.

Steve McClaren will be able to play Wisdom against Chelsea in the FA Cup this weekend after the new terms were struck.
