Liverpool's Rising Star Elliott Faces Up to Six Weeks on the Sidelines with Fractured Foot Injury

The Reds medical team has now confirmed that Elliott has suffered a fracture, which will keep him out of action for a minimum of one month. This unfortunate news means he will be absent from the squad during a critical period where his presence is greatly needed.

This desperation comes after the team faces seven games in the next 30 days which means squad rotation is vital to success and keeping stamina up. 

Liverpool face Chelsea at Anfield on October 20th which is likely to be Elliott’s return date but he is set to miss games against Bournemouth, AC Milan, Bologna, Crystal Palace, Wolverhampton Wanderers, West Ham and Nottingham Forest. 

The 21-year-old is yet to start a game so far this term and was probably waiting for his chance to prove himself under new manager Arne Slot - which he will have to wait another month for. 

Elliott now faces a number of weeks on the treatment table in which he can only watch as Liverpool endure a mass of games without him.
