West Ham are in want of a number of new gamers this summer time on the again of a really disappointing 2024-25 season – and particularly so within the Premier League. Midfield and ahead areas shall be addressed, and one participant that may assist with each is Harvey Elliott.
Elliott has struggled for prominence at Liverpool since Arne Slot’s arrival as supervisor. He managed solely 28 appearances final season throughout all competitions, and within the Premier League, he made solely two begins – each got here after the title had already been wrapped up.
Because of this, it has been determined that Elliott can go away Liverpool this summer time. In latest weeks, he has been linked with the likes of Nottingham Forest and Wolves, and now he has been backed to hitch West Ham.

Talking on talkSPORT (by way of Empire of the Kop), former West Ham participant and assistant supervisor Stuart Pearce has urged his former membership to enter the bidding for Elliott.
“When Klopp left, he mentioned: ‘I ought to have performed Harvey Elliott a bit extra’. That was one of many statements he made. He recognized the expertise of him and recognized that he didn’t play him sufficient. He hasn’t performed sufficient this 12 months as soon as once more. I feel that may be a great transfer for each events (if he joined West Ham).”
The issue that West Ham may encounter in the event that they go for Elliott is his asking worth. Liverpool are believed to be demanding £50m from any membership that needs to signal the 22-year-old this summer time, which may very well be out of their funds.
It stays to be seen the place Elliott finally ends up by the closing of this summer time’s second switch window in September. West Ham could also be a great possibility, however until an enormous sale or two occurs on the London Stadium, it might not be a practical one.
