Pool poised to land Bruna

Skysports.com understands that Blackpool have agreed a deal to sign Liverpool youngster Gerardo Bruna.

Seasiders chairman Karl Oyston confirmed earlier this week that the Championship club were closing in on a deal for Bruna, along with team-mate Tom Ince, after skysports.com revealed their interest at the start of the month.

A deal is now thought to have been struck and Blackpool are expected to announce shortly that Bruna has moved to Bloomfield Road on a two-year contract.

The Argentine midfielder, 20, has yet to break into the Liverpool first team but is a regular in their reserve side.

He is regarded as an exciting prospect for the future, having been with the Reds since 2007, and will be hoping to develop further with Ian Holloway's side if the switch is confirmed.
