'But that's just me' - Harvey Elliott makes new season vow as Liverpool target set

Harvey Elliott has set the bar high for himself next season as he jokingly admitted he's looking for 15 or 20 goals once Liverpool get up and running again.

The youngster started last season in the starting XI in the midfield three and Jurgen Klopp believes he was the 'best player' in that time, but a cruel injury at Leeds United put Elliott out of action until the turn of the year.

Now fully over that injury, Elliott is ready to force his way into Klopp's plans by having a solid pre-season and trying to cement himself in the starting XI.

In a post-session chat with The Redmen TV in Bangkok, Elliott joked about his goals target for next season: "I would say maybe 15 or 20, but that's just me being overconfident. You've got to aim high."

Aiming high is something Elliott has always done since arriving at Anfield from Fulham in 2019. The 19-year-old became the youngest player to play in a Premier League game.

On his return from injury in the FA Cup clash with Cardiff City at Anfield in February, Elliott scored his first goal for the club. This is something he's looking to build on going into the new season.
