Harvey Elliott is now considered more likely to stay at Liverpool than leave this summer, despite interest from a variety of clubs.Liverpool have received contact over a possible deal for Elliott, but as it stands the midfielder looks set to stay at Anfield beyond Monday’s transfer deadline.That is according to the Mail‘s Lewis Steele, who reports that there have been no bids for the 22-year-old so far.RB Leipzig approached the club to learn the conditions over a deal at the beginning of August, but with Xavi Simons yet to move there have been no developments over a possible replacement.Similarly there has been interest from West Ham, Crystal Palace and Brighton with no progress in their advances for a player who finds himself on the fringes under Arne Slot.Liverpool value their No. 19 at £40 million with a buy-back clause or £50 million without, and those lofty demands seem to have put suitors off.If Elliott stays as is now expected, he is likely to remain in his bit-part role, having come off the bench against Palace in the Community Shield and Newcastle in the Premier League so far this season.But his continued presence should be viewed as a positive given Liverpool may need to call upon his blend of versatility and cutting edge as the season progresses.That will certainly be the case when Mohamed Salah departs for the Africa Cup of Nations over the festive period, while any injuries in midfield and attack could be solved by Elliott’s inclusion.His eligibility as a homegrown player in both the Premier League and Champions League could also be valuable, given a shortage of options otherwise.There could still be twists in the tale, with clubs no doubt growing desperate as Monday’s 7pm deadline nears, but it could even be argued that Liverpool would be leaving themselves short if they sold Elliott with replacing him.
