Harvey Elliott: The Euro Under-21 Sensation Poised to Rewrite Football’s Future?
Despite his international success, Elliott returns to Merseyside with uncertainty surrounding his club future. During the past season at Liverpool, he made 28 appearances in all competitions, but only six were starts. These included three domestic cup starts, one in the Champions League after qualification had already been secured, and two in the Premier League after the title was clinched. The rest of his appearances came from the bench.
Though used sparingly, Elliott’s statistical profile over the past year is highly impressive when measured per 90 minutes. He averaged 0.66 goals, 0.4 expected goals (xG), 3.49 shots, 0.33 assists, 0.18 expected assists (xA), and 8.8 progressive carries — numbers that highlight his attacking effectiveness when given freedom in the final third. For a 22-year-old with 94 Premier League appearances, these figures suggest significant promise and would typically warrant greater attention from his club, not to mention potentially draw sizeable transfer interest from others.
