Liverpool playmaker Harvey Elliott has reportedly struck an agreement on personal terms 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 the subject of interest from RB Leipzig. The Bundesliga giants are keen on bolstering their offensive unit by signing a versatile playmaker in the summer transfer window. So, the 22-year-old Liverpool whizkid is a target for the North London club.

Widespread reports have suggested that Jurgen Klopp is the mastermind behind RB Leipzig’s decision to pursue the Englishman’s signature. The former Liverpool manager may succeed in taking Elliott to the Red Bull Arena, as the young playmaker has struck an agreement on personal terms with the Bundesliga outfit.

Harvey Elliott and his frustrating Liverpool stint so far

Harvey Elliott has had to bide his time since joining Liverpool from Fulham in July 2019. While the 22-year-old has shown why he was highly sought-after before he moved to Anfield, regular game time has eluded him in the last half a dozen years. After struggling for starts in the 2024/25 season, the youngster has managed only six minutes of action thus far this term.

However, Elliott’s stock in the market remains high, with several well-known clubs across Europe setting their sights on him. An adventure in the Bundesliga may be on the cards, with RB Leipzig pushing hard to sign the English youth international in the summer transfer window.

Bundesliga adventure beckons?

RB Leipzig’s interest in Harvey Elliott is understandable. The Bundesliga giants are in a spot of bother over Xavi Simons’s long-term future amid the Dutch attacker’s persistent links with Chelsea. So, Die Roten Bullen must dip into the market for a replacement, with Elliott emerging as a viable target.

The 22-year-old Englishman has been open to leaving Liverpool in the summer transfer window amid his desire to convince Thomas Tuchel to pick him in England’s squad for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Elliott is one step closer to joining RB Leipzig after striking an agreement on personal terms with the Bundesliga club.

Meanwhile, Liverpool will not stand in the English playmaker’s way, and they want a “suitable offer” to part ways with him in the summer transfer window. It will be interesting to see how talks between RB Leipzig and Liverpool progress in the coming days.
