Talksport understands that Elliott is away from Angeld this summer, and RB Leipzig.

Liverpool will request a fee of more than 40 million GBP to sell the playmaker. This is a number similar to what they appreciated his English teammate Joe Gomez last year.

The latter was to complete a GBP 45 million GBP switch in June 2024, with Anthony Gordon moving in the other direction.

After Daily Mail, Gordon, who was Duty in the Euro 2024, even had a medical bay in Leipzig booked for his transfer of 75 million GBP.

The former Newcastle co-owner Amanda Staveley, the played a crucial role in the orchestrating of the Safi Public Investment Fund (PIF) Takeover of the Premier League Association Back in 2021has confirmed Liverpool’s interest since then.

She later said to The Athletic: “I knew what it came when I was going, but the fans and PIF earned every focus from me.

“If I had left before (the PSR period) and we had violated it, it would have been bad. It was very, very difficult, but I was determined to ensure [Newcastle CEO] Darren [Eales] Has a clear runway.

“My biggest concern was that we would lose Alex (Isak) or Anthony (Gordon) because Liverpool followed him and both are extraordinary players. Negotiation is difficult because they have to pretend that it means nothing if it means everything.”

After Gordon was born in Liverpool, he spent time in the club academy before leaving Everton in 2012 at the age of 11.

“The Gordon is interesting. It is one that I always kept in my back pocket when someone who could be revised because he was very close to Liverpool last year.

“To the extent to which the deal has dropped to the last phase, and I think that Newcastle has only decided, we can actually not deal with this guy.

“So it would not surprise me if there is still a Liverpool’s itching.

“But I think it would take a wide range, and maybe you have to get players from the salary statement before you look at it.”

Since then, Liverpool Trent Alexander-Arnold, Caoimhin Kelleher and Jarell Quansah have sold, with Elliott now also being for sale.
