Harvey Elliott: Putting on the Liverpool kit again is a feeling like no other

---

Harvey Elliott is loving the feeling of representing Liverpool again.

The 23-year-old returned to the club this summer having spent last season on loan with Aston Villa.

He did so with a new head coach in situ, and Elliott has started both of Andoni Iraola’s first two games in charge – friendly victories over Sunderland and Wrexham respectively in the USA.

And the former England U21 international, who joined the Reds seven years ago this week, is determined to savour every moment as he looks ahead to the new campaign.

“Everyone knows how much I love the club,” Elliott said, following the 1-0 win against Wrexham in New York.

“I’ve supported them from a very young age. It was my childhood dream. Putting on the kit again is a feeling like no other.

“Last summer I wanted a new challenge, I wanted to go out of my comfort zone. I thought it would take me on as a player again, but unfortunately it didn’t work out.

“This is kind of a second chance, especially with the new gaffer. Hopefully I can get in his good books.”
