Wolves Eye Move for Premier League Giant’s £40m Midfield Talent as Exit from Anfield Looms
As Liverpool prepare for their summer pre-season campaign — starting with a friendly against Preston North End and then heading to Asia for high-profile matches against AC Milan and Yokohama F. Marinos — one of their midfielders may be preparing for a different kind of journey.
According to Football Insider, Wolverhampton Wanderers are exploring a potential swoop for 22-year-old Harvey Elliott, who has struggled to lock down a regular starting spot at Anfield. The England U21 international has racked up 147 appearances for Liverpool since his 2019 move from Fulham, notching 15 goals and 20 assists, but his role under new boss Arne Slot looks increasingly uncertain.
Elliott’s limited game time last season — just two Premier League starts — and the recent arrival of Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen have pushed the versatile midfielder further down the pecking order.
Wolves are reportedly very interested in capitalising on this situation and bringing Elliott to Molineux, as they look to strengthen their midfield ahead of the new campaign. Brighton & Hove Albion are also monitoring the situation closely, with both clubs potentially preparing to test Liverpool’s resolve.
The Reds are understood to value Elliott at around **£40 million** and are reportedly open to offers, hoping interest from multiple Premier League clubs could ignite a bidding war. While Elliott remains part of Liverpool’s travelling squad for now, his long-term future appears to be firmly up in the air — and Wolves could be poised to pounce.
