Brighton make Harvey Elliott their top target! Seagulls consider £40m swoop to sign Liverpool ace who is desperate for more first-team football

Liverpool

<p>Brighton have identified <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/england-under-21s-player-ratings-germany-jarell-quansah-harvey-elliott/bltf688c461abd08049" target="_blank">England U21 midfielder</a> as a top target according to <a href="https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/35496426/brighton-harvey-elliott-transfer-liverpool/" target="_blank">The Sun</a>, and feel that they can tempt Elliott with a £40m move to the Amex Stadium with the offer of a starring role to play in the Seagulls' attractive brand of football. Fabian Hurzeler's side reportedly believe that Elliott can take them to a new level, be that from a central role or out wide.  </p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Elliott is a boyhood Liverpool fan, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/wasting-years-harvey-elliot-opens-door-liverpool-exit-bemoans-lack-minutes-arne-slot/bltecef299a1f9428e0" target="_blank">but has spoken out previously about his desire to play more regular first-team football</a>, though he previously hoped that would be at Anfield. With the recent arrival of Florian Wirtz, Elliott is likely to fall further down the Reds' pecking order and may reluctantly decide that his best option is to move and kick-start his career elsewhere. Nottingham Forest have also been reported to hold an interest, but it is thought that Elliott would prefer a move to Brighton due to their attacking style of play. </p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Elliott became the youngest-ever player to start a game for Liverpool at the time back in September 2019, aged 16 years and 174 days. Having joined the Reds from Fulham in a high-profile transfer for such a young player that summer, Elliott was touted for big things and saw his influence within the squad gradually increase under Jurgen Klopp. He has made 147 appearances for Liverpool in all competitions, but just 28 in 2024/25 after 53 the previous season. </p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Elliott has a big decision to make this summer about where his long-term future lies, particularly with the 2026 World Cup on the horizon as he aims to force himself into Thomas Tuchel's plans. Brighton may have to deal with the departure of Joao Pedro this summer, and will be hoping, as ever, to find their next young gems in the transfer market.  </p>

WHAT NEXT FOR ELLIOTT AND BRIGHTON?
