‘Unreal’ – Exclusive: Liverpool kid dubbed by teammate ‘Best 17-yr-old I’ve ever seen’
Blackburn Rovers’ staff and players have been blown away by the performances of Liverpool teenager Harvey Elliott in training, Football Insider understands.
The attacker has made a big impact at Ewood Park since he joined on a season-long loan deal from the Premier League champions in October.
One senior Blackburn player told Football Insider that Elliott is “the best 17-year-old I’ve ever seen”, and tipped him to have an “unreal career” at the top level.
Other leading players at the Championship club have been left open-mouthed at the youngster’s ability.
Particular attention was brought to the loanee’s decision making and ball retention at Blackburn’s Brockhall training ground, attributes that will no doubt please Jurgen Klopp.
However, Elliott is not just impressing behind-the-scenes.
His 21 appearances in the Championship this season have yielded four goals and eight assists – no player in the division has set up more.
A product of Fulham’s academy, Elliott moved to Anfield in July 2019, and one-year later he put pen to paper on his first professional contract.
Elliott became the youngest player in Premier League history when he featured for Fulham against Wolves – aged 16 years and 30 days – in May 2019.
