"If you're Liverpool, you're probably best off bringing him back and keeping him in the squad, Hutchison said, as quoted by Empire of the Kop. They only had a short number on the bench at the weekend and, probably that's why Mo Salah was a little bit fortunate that he made the bench. [Cody] Gakpo was injured, [Wataru] Endo was injured, and [Conor] Bradley was suspended, so I think it'll be a good move from Liverpool to bring him back."
"Liverpool will be without Mohamed Salah for the duration of Egypt's participation at this year's AFCON, so that could be a major headache for Slot. Just as fans will be starting to make their plans to buy Tottenham vs Liverpool tickets, the club needs to put plans in place to ensure their squad copes with Salah's absence in upcoming games. It's not easy getting signings done in January, so Elliott being recalled could end up being the most realistic option for the Merseyside giants."
Harvey Elliott has struggled for first-team opportunities during his loan at Aston Villa and has failed to regain form after falling out of favour at Liverpool. Limited minutes at Villa have prompted suggestions that Liverpool recall him to bolster squad options in midfield or the front three. Liverpool face depth issues with recent injuries to Cody Gakpo and Wataru Endo, and Conor Bradley's suspension, while Mohamed Salah will be unavailable during Egypt's AFCON. January transfer deals are difficult to complete, making Elliott's recall a realistic and timely option as the club seeks immediate reinforcement.
