Israeli Under-16 International striker Amir Berkovich is set to join Championship outfit Barnsley.

The 16-year-old Hapoel Ra'anana player impressed and scored earlier this month in a 3-3 youth match against Everton.

Berkovich - no relation to former Israel international Eyal Berkovich - scored 25 goals last season for Hapoel Ra'anana youth team.

His agent Adam Keidan is in England to finalise the terms with the Yorkshire club.
