Harvey Elliott is reportedly more likely to stay at Liverpool this summer despite seemingly being on the brink of an RB Leipzig transfer.

According to The Daily Mail, Elliott could remain at Liverpool, until January at the very least, as none of his suitors have put any significant offers on the table for the £40 million-rated ($54m) player. Head coach Arne Slot does not have a huge amount of attacking depth, so the 22-year-old could stay after all.

Elliott admitted he may have to leave Liverpool this summer if their new signings "blocked his path" to the first-team. Just last week, the England Under-21 international reportedly agreed personal terms with Leipzig as an Anfield exit beckoned. But with days left of the transfer window, the German side, Crystal Palace, and Brighton have not tempted Liverpool to part ways with the youngster.
DID YOU KNOW?
The attacking midfielder, whose Liverpool contract runs until 2027, has scored 15 goals and added 21 assists in 149 games for the Reds so far. This season, he came off the bench in second-half stoppage time in his team's 3-2 win at Newcastle United on Monday, but that is his sole outing so far.

Elliott, who has also played in central midfield and on both wings for Liverpool, is running out of time to seal a permanent exit or loan move. The transfer window shuts on September 1, so he does not have long to get his ducks in a row.
