Wolverhampton Wanderers manager Kenny Jackett has confirmed his interest in signing Liverpool's Sheyi Ojo.

Reports on Sunday suggested that the 18-year-old is set for a loan move to Molineux, with Reds manager Brendan Rodgers wanting the youngster to gain more first-team action.

Jackett has now confirmed that talks with Liverpool are underway, but are not quite as far along as those which look certain to seal a loan move for Cardiff City striker Adam Le Fondre in the coming days.

Ojo, who had a loan spell at Wigan Athletic last season, scored the winner in Liverpool's 2-1 pre-season friendly win against Swindon Town on Sunday.
