Harvey Elliott hints at imminent Liverpool return | OneFootball

Harvey Elliot has hinted he is close to returning to action for Liverpool.

The 18-year-old has been out since suffering a fracture-dislocation of his ankle against Leeds in September.

And after a recent return to training, Elliott could be back in action after the international break.

"See you soon reds", the youngster posted on Instagram read accompanied by a winking emoji, "enjoy the break."

Liverpool's next match is against Cardiff City in the FA Cup on February 6.

Reds assistant Pep Lijnders recently commented on Elliott's potential return.

"He didn't lose his football brain during the time he was off," Lijnders said. "Yesterday, it would be a crime not playing him if you see him train like that.

"Some players don't knock on the door, they run through it. And Harvey is a player like that in each session.

"But he is coming back from a long-term injury so we need to take our time. The most important thing is he gets team fit and prepares himself well for the moment he is really ready."
