Liverpool starlet Harvey Elliott has been praised after featuring for Liverpool under-23s for the second time in a month.
Elliott played 45 minutes for the Reds’ under-23 side on Monday in their 4-0 win over Leicester City. He also appeared in a 2-2 draw against Chelsea on April 2. The midfielder hasn’t been in the Reds’ past five Premier League matchday squads and last featured in the FA Cup quarter-final victory over Nottingham Forest last month. During yesterday’s clash, Tyler Morton and Rhys Williams also played as Liverpool moved up to fifth place in the Premier League 2.
Under-23s manager Barry Lewtas was pleased with Elliott’s cameo. He told the club’s official website: “We had a strong midfield out with Tyler, Leighton Clarkson and Harvey - we are a top club and that is the level of players we have at this club.
