Liverpool's Elliott Draws Major Transfer Interest

Liverpool midfielder Harvey Elliott has attracted strong transfer interest after being named Player of the Tournament at the Under-21 European Championship, where he scored five goals for England. Despite this, Elliott had limited starts under Arne Slot last season and is seeking regular first-team football as he approaches a crucial career stage. Liverpool are demanding over £40 million for Elliott with a buy-back clause, or above £50 million without one, and are weighing offers from RB Leipzig, Newcastle, Brighton, and Chelsea. RB Leipzig, encouraged by Jurgen Klopp's recommendation, are a leading contender, but Elliott reportedly prefers a move to a Champions League club. Liverpool's homegrown player shortage complicates their decision, while pundit Micah Richards has argued that Elliott could be a long-term replacement for Mohamed Salah. The club remains open to selling Elliott if their financial conditions are satisfied.
