ROVERS loan star Harvey Elliott says he is determined to make a Liverpool breakthrough after signing a new long-term contract at Anfield.

The 18-year-old starred at Ewood Park and has now put pen to paper on a new deal with his boyhood club.

Elliott racked up 41 games in the Championship for Rovers, providing seven goals and 11 assists.

He mas made nine first-team appearances for Jurgen Klopp’s side since arriving from Fulham in the summer of 2019 and now has his sights set on regular Premier League action.

“I think that’s got to be everyone’s aim: to get in the team. To get in and around it at least,” he told Liverpoolfc.com.

“It’s not going to come easily; there’s a great bunch of boys here and great talent. But it’s down to me to work hard. I believe in myself that I can do it. I just want to be around the team, support everyone and be there if needed.

“Ever since I first walked through the door they (the coaching staff) have showed (faith). They show it with every single player; they always have faith in you.

“They’re always giving you 100 per cent on the training pitch and off the training pitch, always wanting you to be the best possible person and player.

“I feel like there’s a lot of faith in me. But it’s just down to me to go and show it and prove them right.”
