The imminent arrival of Alexander Isak at Liverpool has opened up a potential departure for Elliott.

Speaking in May, Elliott admitted he would need to do "what's best" for his career in the summer when asked about his Liverpool future.

The England U21 international has made just one appearance for the Reds in the opening three games of the Premier League season, a one-minute outing off the bench against Newcastle.

A fixture in Lee Carsley's U21 Euros-winning side in June, Elliott scored five goals throughout the campaign as well as a goal in the final as the young lions beat Germany 3-2 after extra-time.

Chelsea held talks to renegotiate Sancho's salary to fit in with their wage structure but could not come to an agreement.
