Negotiations between Morgan Rogers and Liverpool are underway, with Elliot heading to RB Leipzig
Liverpool are negotiating with Aston Villa midfielder Morgan Rogers as a possible replacement for Harvey Elliott, who is close to joining RB Leipzig before the transfer window closes.
Elliott Exit Accelerates After Leipzig’s Deal for Xavi Simons
Harvey Elliott’s move to Germany gained momentum after Tottenham agreed to sign Xavi Simons from Leipzig. With Simons leaving, Leipzig has freed up resources to push for Elliott, who has struggled for minutes under new Liverpool boss Arne Slot.
If the deal goes through, Elliott will become the latest Premier League talent to continue his development in the Bundesliga.
Liverpool Target Morgan Rogers
According to Football Insider, Liverpool see Morgan Rogers as a direct replacement. The 21-year-old midfielder has become a reliable performer under Unai Emery at Aston Villa, making him an attractive option for the Reds.
However, Villa may be reluctant to part ways with Rogers, especially after already selling Jacob Ramsey to Newcastle to ease Financial Fair Play concerns. Tottenham are also reportedly monitoring the player.
Other Deals: Isak and Guéhi Close to Anfield
While Rogers remains uncertain, Liverpool are closer to securing two major signings: Alexander Isak (Newcastle) and Marc Guéhi (Crystal Palace).
- Newcastle have lined up Nick Woltemade from Stuttgart as Isak’s replacement.
- Crystal Palace are finalizing two defender signings, which could clear the path for Guéhi’s move.
These developments make Liverpool’s late-window reinforcements more likely.
