Report: Timeframe on when Harvey Elliott could return to team training

Liverpool midfielder Harvey Elliott could return to team training in the early stages of 2022, according to The Athletic, as cited by LFC Transfer Room's Twitter account.

The 18-year-old broke his ankle against Leeds United at Elland Road back in mid-September.

Despite that being the case, Elliott is reportedly a chance to return to team training in January. Therefore, the Englishman could be available for the final three months of the season.

ANFIELD WATCH VERDICT

Elliott had a solid start to the 2021-22 Premier League campaign. The midfielder averaged a WhoScored player rating of 6.59 in Liverpool's opening four matches.

Therefore, it was a shame to see Elliott go down with a serious injury back in mid-September. We can't wait to see the talented 18-year-old back in action.

However, we do understand that it might take Elliott some time to get back to his best. It is very rare you see a footballer hit the ground running after a lengthy layoff.
