(Reuters) - Liverpool and the Premier League said they have agreed on a compensation settlement with the family of an unnamed 13-year-old victim to finally resolve the 'tapping up' scandal.

Liverpool were fined 100,000 pounds and banned from signing academy players from the English league teams in April after breaching rules governing the transfer of youth players.
