Liverpool attacker Harvey Elliott is now in talks with Bundesliga club RB Leipzig over a move in the summer transfer window.

According to an update by reputed German journalist Florian Plettenberg, Harvey Elliott is in advanced talks with Bundesliga outfit RB Leipzig, and the move is now inching closer, with talks between the two parties advancing. He needs to leave the Premier League champions to play regularly, and moving to Germany could be ideal.

RB Leipzig have an impressive track record of grooming young players, and they could help the England attacking midfielder develop even further. He will be able to play regularly in Germany, and that could accelerate his development. Recent reports have suggested that they have submitted an enquiry over a summer move.

There is no doubt that the 22-year-old is a promising young player with a bright future, but Liverpool will not be able to provide him with the opportunities he needs. Elliott has been a very useful player for Liverpool in recent seasons. His ability to slot into multiple attacking roles makes him a valuable asset.

The Englishman is likely to be an important player for the German club next season. Leipzig are expected to sell Xavi Simons to Chelsea soon, and Elliott will be his replacement. Regular football in Germany could help him fulfil his tremendous potential. If he manages to continue his development with regular football in Germany, he will have plenty of opportunities to play for a bigger club in the future.

Elliott needs a move this summer

For now, sitting on the bench at a big club like Liverpool will not benefit him, so it makes sense for him to move on in search of regular playing time. Meanwhile, Liverpool will look to recoup a substantial amount of money for him and improve their squad. The Reds have been very active in the transfer market this summer, and they have been linked with several attacking players.

It will be interesting to see if they can improve their squad further before the new season begins. They will look to defend the Premier League crown and do well in the UEFA Champions League as well. Ideally, Liverpool should look to include a buyback clause in Elliott’s contract so that they can bring him back to the club in the future. It remains to be seen how the situation develops.
