Watford reportedly agreed a fee of 4 million pounds for the talented front-man.
Sinclair is represented by Aidy Ward, the agent who orchestrated Raheem Sterling’s move to Manchester City last season.
Sinclair is one of the best youth players at Liverpool and the fans will certainly be disappointed with him leaving them. Liverpool have also lost the likes of Jordan Rossiter and Teixeira this summer. They could also sell Sergi Canos after a contract dispute.
His departure is a bit of a surprise considering how good Jurgen Klopp is at developing young players. Furthermore, joining Watford is a massive step down for Sinclair.
The young forward scored his first senior goal for Liverpool against Exeter this season and is also the youngest ever debutant in the history of the club. Sinclair has attracted a lot of attention from other Premier League sides due to his explosive style of play. He can also operate out wide as well as a central striker.
