Liverpool has received a resounding message regarding Harvey Elliott's future amid growing speculation about the young playmaker's prospects at Anfield.

Elliott has been the subject of transfer rumors, with the chatter gaining momentum since last season drew to a close.

Liverpool is believed to be holding out for a sum north of $69 million (£50 million) for Elliott this summer, with RB Leipzig being touted as a possible new home for him.

Elliott clocked up 28 appearances for Liverpool in the previous season, featuring in 18 Premier League matches and earning a mere six starts under head coach Arne Slot throughout the term Amid this backdrop, there's talk that Elliott might be on his way out of Anfield with a permanent transfer this summer.
