Liverpool winger Toni Silva joins Barnsley

Barnsley have signed Liverpool winger Toni Silva on a free transfer.

The 18-year-old, who has agreed a two-year contract, spent time on loan with League Two side Northampton last season, scoring once in 15 appearances.

"He's young, enthusiastic and quick with and without the ball," Tykes boss Keith Hill told BBC Radio Sheffield.

"There's a lot of development that we're going to have to put into him to make him realise his potential but I believe we can do that."
