England reach final with 2-1 win over NetherlandsElliott scores twice Fans delighted amid reports of move Follow GOAL on WhatsApp! 🟢📱WHAT HAPPENED?
Elliott scored twice in the semi-finals of the European Under-21 Championship, as England beat the Netherlands 2-1. The Liverpool ace's first goal was a fine drive but his second was superb, as he slalomed through the Dutch defence and lashed an effort beyond Robin Roefs, in a move akin to Lionel Messi. The Reds star has been linked with a summer exit amid interest from Brighton, and fans believe his value has increased after such a fine display.

@AnythingLFC_ said: "Add another £10m-£20m onto Harvey Elliott's price tag after this Euros."
@GusWelshLFC added: "Harvey Elliott just added another £10m to his transfer fee."
@9_Hendo said: "Harvey Elliott adding millions to the fee Liverpool will command this summer! Get in."
@Alexgildeatrott said: "We shouldn't be selling Harvey Elliott. If we are, minimum £50m."
@LewisSteele_ concluded: "Absolutely superb goal from Harvey Elliott. At the double for England U21s to all but send them to the final. His price tag, if LFC are going to sell him this summer, is only going one way based on this tournament. Supremely talented and a top, top lad."
THE BIGGER PICTURE
Elliott has now scored four goals at the U21 Euros, having also netted against Czechia in the group stages, and Spain in the quarter-finals. At the last stage of reporting, Brighton were said to be considering a move at around £40 million ($55m) this summer, after making the midfielder their top target. He has played 147 times for Liverpool in total but made just two Premier League starts last term.

Elliott will aim to finish the job this weekend as England go in search of their second successive Under-21 European Championship. Then, he may well be on the move.
