It was a tough season for Harvey Elliott after he looked set to be a big part of the Liverpool team, only to have a serious ankle injury check his progress. However he made a solid return in the latter half of the season and has now committed his future to the club with a brand new five-year contract that will ensure he stays at Anfield until 2027.

FA Cup winners Liverpool have confirmed that they have signed talented young midfielder Harvey Elliott to a new contract that will run until 2027.

Elliott, 19, joined Liverpool from Fulham in the summer of 2019, and after a loan spell with Blackburn Rovers in the 2020-21 season, he became a part of Jurgen Klopp's first-team squad, often featuring off the bench.

He looked set to take a step forward ahead of last season, only for an ankle injury to check his progress. He did, however, return to action in the second-half of the season and his progress has been rewarded with a new contract.
