RB Leipzig are interested in signing Liverpool's Harvey Elliott , but sources have told ESPN a potential stumbling block is the transfer fee and the club's reluctance to let him leave.

Leipzig are planning for life post- Xavi Simons with the Dutch forward set for a move to Tottenham for a fee in the region of €60m ($75m).

The Bundesliga side have turned attention to Elliott, but a source said Leipzig are going to be reluctant to meet Liverpool's potential €45m-50m asking price for the player.

Liverpool are not under pressure to let Elliott leave. The 22-year-old is a key part of Arne Slot's squad and sources told ESPN that Liverpool are keen to keep Elliott.
