A highly-rated young talent, Elliott played a starring role in England’s triumph at the Under-21 Euros last summer, but game time was hard to come by under Slot. Could Elliott return to Liverpool in January (Photo: Getty) ‘I think there’s a good chance Harvey Elliott would come back from Aston Villa as well.’ According to reports, there is no recall clause in the player’s contract but a deal could still be reached between the two clubs to cancel the loan in January, though that would be a blow to Liverpool’s finances.

Alternatively, Slot could sign a new forward to ease the loss of Isak, with Bournemouth winger Antoine Semenyo, who has a £65m release clause, a top target. ‘Whether Liverpool go for a striker or another attacking player like Semenyo, who Liverpool have been heavily linked with as well, I think we all know he’s got a buyout clause in January,’ Carragher added. ‘Then you’ve got wide players, as in Salah and Gakpo, who’ve played a lot of games through the middle as well. So if they do want Semenyo, I think that’s probably a good way around it.’ For more stories like this, check our sport page.
