Elliott Declares Readiness For Liverpool First Team Chances Next Season

Harvey Elliott says he is ready to claim a regular place in Liverpool’s first team next season after a productive loan spell with championship side Blackburn Rovers this term.

Elliott, the Premier League’s youngest ever debutant at 16 years and 30 days, joined Liverpool from Fulham in the summer of 2019 and has taken in nine first team appearances to date at Anfield.

Now 18, Elliott was shipped out on loan to Ewood Park at the start of this season and he has made 40 appearances in the second tier, scoring six goals.

Elliott’s impressive performances has earned him a nomination for the championship’s young player of the season award, and he says he is raring to go for Jurgen Klopp’s men next season.

Asked on the Counter Attack Podcast whether he is ready to take that step with the Reds, Elliott said: "Definitely.

"I had a few appearances here and there last season and took this loan with Blackburn, which I personally thought would be the best thing for me.

"I had a chat with Jurgen as well and he said for me to go and express myself, and that the move would be the best thing for my career and for me to get the games and experience. He said he'd support me 100 per cent.

"Next season I am going to go back thinking I can get in the team. I have had this experience and feel ready, and have 50 appearances under my belt, which is a lot for a teenager.

"I feel 100 per cent confident I can go in and challenge. I'm looking forward to the fight and showing to people I am a different player and ready to play when called upon.

"I will need to work hard and train well and if I get my chance, I have to take it."
