Does Elliott have a Liverpool future after latest omission?
Harvey Elliott's position at Liverpool looks uncertain following his absence from the matchday squad at Newcastle on the opening weekend of the Premier League season.
Elliott has had a tough time at Aston Villa last season, where he only played nine games and 277 minutes. His return to Liverpool for pre-season was warmly welcomed, but he was left out of the team for their first two friendlies under Andoni Iraola. As the World Cup players returned, it became clear that Elliott was not on Liverpool's radar.
With his contract expiring in 2028, he must find a new club where he can play regularly. Elliott expressed his desire to be selfish and find a place where he can contribute. He emphasized that either staying at Liverpool and fighting for his spot or moving elsewhere is still uncertain. After a personally challenging year, Elliott made a strong return to pre-season with Liverpool.
With other attacking players expected to join Anfield, it seems that Elliott's future may lie elsewhere, possibly in the Premier League or Europe.
