Liverpool Raise Harvey Elliott Valuation Amid Growing Transfer Interest
Liverpool have reportedly increased their asking price for Harvey Elliott, who appears set to depart Anfield this summer.
The 22-year-old midfielder has slipped down the squad hierarchy and is expected to pursue a move elsewhere to secure more regular playing time and revive his career.
According to Football Insider, German sides Borussia Dortmund and RB Leipzig are tracking Elliott, while Premier League clubs Brighton, Brentford, and Fulham are also keen on signing him.
Former Everton CEO and football advisor Keith Wyness believes Elliott’s performances for England at the Under-21 European Championship—where he helped the team win the title and earned Player of the Tournament honors—have significantly boosted his market value. Speaking on Football Insider’s Inside Track podcast, Wyness claimed Elliott’s valuation has likely risen from £20 million to £40 million.
While praising both Elliott and U21 coach Lee Carsley, Wyness warned that clubs should be cautious about paying inflated fees based solely on tournament performances, pointing to past cases where such transfers didn’t live up to expectations. He added that Liverpool will be eager to cash in while Elliott’s stock is high, but buyers should evaluate the risk before committing to a hefty fee.
Liverpool Eager to Tie Down Konate with New Deal
Elsewhere, Liverpool are actively trying to extend Ibrahima Konate’s contract, Football Insider reports.
The French defender, whose current deal expires in 2026, has yet to agree new terms, raising concerns at the club over the possibility of losing him on a free transfer.
As revealed on June 30, Liverpool may be forced to consider offers in the £40–50 million range if Konate opts not to renew. Talks are expected to accelerate in the coming weeks, with the club aiming to resolve the situation before the September transfer deadline.
