Harvey Elliott<\/a> is due to return to pre-season with Liverpool next week, but the 22-year-old has kept up his fitness with one-to-one sessions this week.<\/b><\/p>\n

After helping England win the U21 Euros last month as Player of the Tournament, Elliott was granted a late return to pre-season training.<\/p>\n

Both he and midfielder Tyler Morton<\/a> are slated to rejoin the squad shortly before the flight to Asia on Monday and could be involved in friendlies against AC Milan<\/a> and Yokohama F. Marinos.<\/p>\n

While every precaution will be taken with the pair knowing they are behind the majority of the squad in terms of preparations for 2025\/26, Arne Slot<\/a> will be assured over their sharpness.<\/p>\n

Elliott has been working with shooting specialist Scott Chickelday in London this week while Morton trained with coach Wade Muscart in Runcorn.<\/p>\n

It is not the first time Elliott has worked with Chickelday, and in fact their relationship goes back to the midfielder\u2019s time in the academy at QPR.<\/p>\n

They have maintained contact since and Liverpool\u2019s No. 19 has linked up with his former youth coach frequently during off-season breaks.<\/p>\n

While there will be no concerns over the shape either Elliott or Morton arrive back at Liverpool in, there are no guarantees either will stay with the club this summer.<\/p>\n

West Ham<\/a> are credited with an interest<\/a> in both players and are reported to be pushing ahead with a move for Elliott at the very least.<\/p>\n

Morton is considered almost certain to leave<\/a> after barely featuring under Slot last season, having been denied a loan move to Bayer Leverkusen<\/a> in the summer and then seeing shoulder surgery rule out a mid-season switch.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Along with West Ham<\/a>, the 22-year-old can count SC Braga, Ajax and Club Brugge among his suitors on the continent.<\/p>\n

Liverpool had hoped to bring in \u00a320 million if they were to sell Morton, while Elliott is valued at around \u00a350 million.<\/p>\n

The club could however agree a deal for Elliott at a lower price of \u00a340 million if a buy-back clause is included as part of the terms.<\/p>\n

Slot\u2019s squad have continued to work at the AXA Training Centre this week but will fly to Asia on Monday, before their meetings with AC Milan<\/a> in Hong Kong (July 26) and Yokohama FM in Japan (July 30).<\/p>\n

Elliott is facing even fiercer competition for his place in the squad heading into next season following the \u00a3116 million signing of natural No. 10 Florian Wirtz<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Harvey Elliott is due to return to pre-season with Liverpool next week, but the 22-year-old has kept up…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":269643,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8815],"tags":[748,393,4884,179,763,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-269642","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-liverpool","8":"tag-britain","9":"tag-england","10":"tag-great-britain","11":"tag-liverpool","12":"tag-liverpool-fc","13":"tag-uk","14":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114869285927603760","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/269642","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=269642"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/269642\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/269643"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=269642"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=269642"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=269642"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
