Liverpool’s Harvey Elliott could be Bundesliga bound | OneFootball

As reported by The Athletic, Premier League champions Liverpool are looking to sell Harvey Elliott.

So far this summer, Arne Slot’s side have invested over €200 million in new recruits, overseeing the arrivals of Florian Wirtz and Jeremie Frimpong from Bayer Leverkusen, as well as Milos Kerkez from AFC Bournemouth.

With such lucrative spending comes a requirement to balance the books, and Liverpool are aiming to do so by offloading Elliott, who shone bright with five goals in six appearances as England won their second consecutive U21 European Championship.

It is understood that the Premier League outfit would demand around €58 million for the 22-year-old, with sides such as Brighton & Hove Albion and West Ham United keeping a close eye on his situation.

Nevertheless, this fee could prevent further suitors from making a move for the Englishman.

Bayer Leverkusen have previously expressed an interest in luring Elliott to the BayArena, while RB Leipzig have always admired the midfielder’s talents.

Therefore, Liverpool would be willing to lower their valuation to around €47 million.

This would, however, see the Reds install a buy-back option into any deal, in a similar manner to the potential transfer of Jarell Quansah to Die Werkself.

Despite this, should Leverkusen secure a deal with PSV Eindhoven for the signing of Malik Tillman, then a move for Elliott may become redundant.
