On Saturday, Liverpool’s Harvey Elliott received the Euro U21 event with England and was named participant of the event because the Three Lions dispatched Germany 3-2, with the Reds’ attacker scoring the sport’s first objective.
“It’s one other unimaginable second,” mentioned Elliott, who ended the 2024-25 season as a Premier League champion with the Reds and now provides a world title to his resume. “There have been massive expectations, massive stress.
“However the way in which the lads dealt with it from begin to end of this event, nobody deserves it extra. It’s time to rejoice as a result of it’s been very onerous work, however it’s celebration time now and we’re going to benefit from it.”
Regardless of the star flip for England, what comes subsequent for the Elliott isn’t sure. If he was a rising star not on Liverpool’s books, he appears exactly the type of younger homegrown expertise one would anticipate the Reds to chase.
He’s on the Reds’ books, although, and regardless of wanting very very similar to a reputation for the long run underneath former supervisor Jürgen Klopp, Elliott by no means appeared to earn the boldness of recent supervisor Arne Slot within the 2024-25 season.
On the proof of final season’s title, Slot is aware of what he’s doing—as do Michael Edwards in Richard Hughes within the membership’s higher administration—but when Elliott can’t see a path to taking part in time and strikes on it should increase eyebrows.
The boyhood Liverpool fan has been on the membership since 2019, which means Elliott counts as not simply homegrown however membership skilled for registration functions. Maybe, then, his will merely find yourself a case of just about and never fairly.
The extent required of any participant desirous to turn into an everyday starter for a title-winning facet with aspirations of defending their league title and including European glory to the checklist subsequent season is, in any case, virtually unimaginably excessive.
Elliott, although, clearly loves the membership. Is clearly an distinctive younger expertise. Counts as membership skilled. Hopefully, then, simply possibly, there’s nonetheless a path to him attaining his full potential as a participant with out leaving the Reds.
