Elliott had cemented his place in Liverpool's plans under Jurgen Klopp, featuring in more than 30 league matches during each of the German manager's final two campaigns. "Look, if I had it my way, I'd be here for the rest of my career, it's as simple as that, I love everything about the club," Elliott told The Anfield Wrap earlier this year.

I think it's still something I need to review. It's something I need to decide and have a look at.

At the moment I'm here for the season, as far as I'm aware, unless if anything changes, we have a busy preseason, it's non-stop, I need to make sure I'm focused on that and just be ready for everything." Transfer clause During Klopp's final campaign, Elliott featured more frequently from the bench than in the starting XI in league fixtures, yet he delivered a goal or assist every 111 minutes domestically, or every 155 minutes when considering all competitions. He's currently on five outings, but hasn't made the squad for the last three league matches (including a game against Liverpool, where he was ineligible).
