Liverpool eye more than £40m for Harvey Elliott as interest builds after U21 Euro heroics | OneFootball

Liverpool have set a firm asking price for Harvey Elliott following his outstanding campaign at the European Under-21 Championship.

Elliott scored five goals in six matches to help the Young Lions retain their crown, capping a summer that has significantly raised his stock across Europe.

Despite his limited role in Arne Slot’s title-winning Premier League side last season, the club still values him highly.

Liverpool think Elliott’s experience at the top level places him above recent benchmarks such as Jarell Quansah’s expected £35 million move to Bayer Leverkusen.

They have made it clear they would only consider selling Elliott for more than £40m if a buy-back clause is included, or upwards of £50m without one.

The club are aware that Elliott is seeking more opportunities and may be open to a move abroad if a suitable opportunity arises.

Interest in Elliott is building, although it is unclear whether any club will match Liverpool’s valuation.

The decision to demand a buy-back clause suggests that Liverpool are not completely closing the door on Elliott’s long-term future at Anfield.

His combination of technical quality, tactical intelligence, and age makes him an attractive proposition in the current market, especially for clubs seeking creative depth in wide or midfield areas.

Meanwhile, Liverpool’s focus on reshaping the squad continues. The arrivals of Florian Wirtz, Milos Kerkez and Jeremie Frimpong made the headlines, but sales are also crucial.

Quansah is close to joining Leverkusen, and further departures could follow, with Elliott’s fellow England youth international Tyler Morton also expected to leave.
