Indeed, Elliott was one of Jurgen Klopp’s star boys, but with Dominik Szoboszlai and Wirtz occupying the position he plays next season, it’s hard to see how he’d get any playing time.

However, the fact that Elliott still has plenty of room to develop means that he can’t just stall his career on the chance that he could get the occasional opportunity for Liverpool here and there, hence why a move makes sense.

There’s no denying that Elliott is an impressive talent, with Ian Wright even labelling the youngster as “fantastic” back in 2022.

Elliott is more than capable of playing in the Premier League and for one of the aforementioned teams, he’d no doubt be an invaluable asset.

Indeed, it’s still early days in the window, but for a fee worth around £30million, teams could do much worse than signing a proven Premier League player who has a keen eye for goal.
