‘Kept telling him’: Liverpool’s Harvey Elliott shares what he was constantly saying to Klopp during his injury

Liverpool youngster Harvey Elliott has shared what he kept saying to Jurgen Klopp after the terrible injury he picked up in September last year.
The 18-year-old is one of the finest talents in the Premier League at the moment. He is destined to become a star in the coming years, but his injury against Leeds United last year really was heartbreaking.
Elliott suffered a fracture-dislocation of the ankle and missed 140 days of action. He was unavailable for 30 Liverpool games, which really was a shame as he could’ve developed a lot in that period.
The youngster is now back and firing, and he has revealed what he always said to Klopp during his time out.
Harvey Elliott: I kept telling Jurgen Klopp that I’ll be back
Elliott sat down for an interview with this week and he spoke about his injury. He was asked how he felt about Klopp saying that his injury was one of the toughest moments of his managerial career.
The youngster replied: “I’m sure he has seen horrible injuries in the past. It’s not nice for anyone to be injured.
“I kept telling him I’ll be back.
“I tried to give positivity to the team and especially to him. So, he knows. It’s nice to see how he feels.”

TBR View:
Elliott’s injury really was a horrifying one and we can only imagine how difficult it must have been for him to come back from that at such a young age.
Thankfully, he’s back and he capped his return with a fantastic goal against Cardiff in the cup last month. He has played six times since he return from injury, including a substitute appearance against Chelsea in the Carabao Cup final.
He has been really good for Liverpool and under someone like Klopp, who cares so much about his players, he will only get better in the coming months and years.
Liverpool take on Watford after the international break and Elliott will be hoping to start that game.
