'He is obviously a fine, fine footballer' - Klopp hails Elliott after first Liverpool appearance

Jurgen Klopp praised Harvey Elliott after making his Liverpool debut against Napoli, describing the teenager as a "fine, fine footballer."

Elliott completed a transfer to Anfield from Fulham over the weekend and was quickly thrown into pre-season action despite his tender age.

The young winger came on for the final 11 minutes of a clash with Napoli on Sunday, which Jurgen Klopp's side ultimately lost 3-0 at Murrayfield in Scotland.
