Harvey Elliott's view on Liverpool exit with star key to Florian Wirtz deal
Liverpool are in talks with Bayer Leverkusen over what would be a club-record deal for Florian Wirtz but the Bundesliga outfit are said to be eyeing some of their rivals' players Liverpool are working hard to try and find a breakthrough in their bid to push through a blockbuster summer transfer for Florian Wirtz - and it has now been suggested that a deal could hinge on Harvey Elliott. Elliott, 22, is a player Bayer Leverkusen admire and, as such, there is interest in him heading in the opposite direction if the Bundesliga outfit do give Wirtz the green light to pursue a dream move to the Premier League champions. In the case of Elliott, it remains to be seen if a move to Germany would appeal. But the talented midfielder has found regular football hard to come by under Arne Slot. He started just twice in the Premier League last season, where he made 18 appearances in total. And the former Fulham prospect has already hinted that he may need to consider his future this summer. Speaking after Liverpool were beaten 3-2 away at Brighton in their penultimate game of the season last month, Elliott admitted: "You try not to get too carried away with the celebrations, we've worked really hard throughout the season. "Some lads, like myself, haven't played as much throughout the season, and it's about going out and enjoying it. We want to win and enjoy it. We need to take the positives and take it into the final game next week." Elliott further fuelled such talk when he was spotted in tears on the pitch after Liverpool were coronated as champions just six days later. He once again alluded that he could be on the move this summer after admitting "you never know what's going to happen". He said: 'I think this one, I've played more of a part in winning the league [than the Reds' 2020 triumph]. 'The season that we won it last time I was still a young kid, I think I only made four appearances or something like that. So now it definitely feels like I've been in and around it a lot. 'Since coming back from my injury I've been in every squad, so just being part of it, just doing the travelling, the away games, all the stuff outside of playing, it feels a lot greater this time. 'I'm just trying to enjoy every experience of it, because you never know what's going to happen. 'You can't take these moments for granted, you just need to enjoy it as much as you can, celebrate as much as you can as well.' With Elliott seemingly open to an exit and Leverkusen interested in bringing him to Germany, it would seem the theory of he and Wirtz swapping clubs may have some legs. Liverpool have now seen a second bid for Wirtz worth £109million rejected and are is still some way short of Leverkusen's £126m valuation. The prospect of landing Elliott could, though, soften Leverkusen's stance and help all parties find a breakthrough.

Boy 'lost dignity' on Ryanair flight to Liverpool, says mum
Boy 'lost dignity' on Ryanair flight to Liverpool, says mum Daire Gorman, 13, was born with a rare condition called Crommelin syndrome, which impacts the development of limbs, and was told he could not bring his power wheelchair on a flight with Ryanair Daire Gorman has a rare condition called Crommelin syndrome (Image: Shelley Gorman / SWNS ) A mum has accused Ryanair of making her son "feel like an inconvenience" after they informed her that her son's power wheelchair could not be accommodated on a flight to Liverpool, where he was excited to witness the Premier League title celebration at Anfield. Daire Gorman, 13, who was born with Crommelin syndrome, a rare condition affecting limb development and has no arms and no femur bones in his legs, is an ardent Liverpool supporter and had previously met the full team and then-manager Jurgen Klopp. The teenager from Co Monaghan was looking forward to travelling from Dublin to Liverpool to see his favourite team, Liverpool, lift the Premier League trophy. But just days before their planned journey, Daire's mother, Shelley, was questioned by Ryanair about whether the power wheelchair could be folded, only to be told later that it exceeded the airline's size limits. Shelley explained that after being asked if the wheelchair could be folded, she replied saying it was a power wheelchair and couldn't fold down. Upon learning that the chair was too large, Shelley contacted the special assistance customer service, expressing her frustration: "I ended up ringing special assistance customer services and they asked could he not go without the chair, and refused to take his chair," reports the Liverpool Echo. Article continues below "As a parent, you try and do your best for your children and especially children with additional needs and protect them from negativity – my child needs his wheelchair, imagine asking can he not go without it." She alleges that Ryanair initially declined to offer a refund before eventually giving in. In response to Shelley's grievances, Ryanair issued a statement to The Irish Times, dismissing the allegation that they didn't offer a refund. In their statement, the airline stated "regrettably, these emotive claims made by his mother are false. She fails anywhere in her complaint to accept that this wheelchair exceeded our well-publicised max dimensions." The power wheelchair wasn't required in the end, as the family managed to find a manual wheelchair which was used on the day. Shelley said this led to more issues. She explained that Daire needed to use an "aisle chair" to transfer onto the plane seat. She also alleges that Daire entered the plane last, when the aircraft was full, resulting in him being pushed the entire length of the plane, "knocking off people" and "losing his dignity (with) everyone watching him transfer on to the seat". She claimed that the airline "completely took Daire's independence away and made him feel like an inconvenience". A Ryanair spokesperson stated that the max dimensions information was "readily available to Ms Gorman when this booking was made and if she had simply complied with them then that would have been the end of the matter". The airline has also refuted the claim that they asked Daire's mother if he could travel without his wheelchair, and confirmed that a refund was offered. They further clarified that wheelchair boardings are managed by the Dublin Airport Authority, not individual airlines. Ryanair dismissed Shelley's assertion that "Ryanair completely took Daire's independence away" as "false and absurd". The airline did not respond to follow-up queries from The Irish Times regarding Daire's seating at the back of the aircraft. Shelley spoke out about the incident on Northern Sound radio on Friday: "He was devastated. It's hard enough for someone in a wheelchair, especially a child with additional needs. They find it hard sometimes to fit in. "So yeah, he was very upset. And he thought then 'oh this is my fault. If I wasn't in a chair this wouldn't be happening. So he was very upset." Our sister publication, the Irish Mirror, has reached out to Ryanair for further comment on the matter.

Stuart Broad to work with South Africa ahead of World Test Championship final
It is understood Broad – who claimed 604 wickets in 167 Tests, putting him fifth on the all-time list – will join South Africa's squad on June 9 at Lord's and work as a consultant for the day at training. This will be Broad's first coaching role, with the 38-year-old having been a television pundit for Sky Sports since retiring from professional cricket at the end of the 2023 Ashes. Broad bowed out in memorable fashion, hitting the last ball he faced for six and then claiming a wicket with his final delivery to help England claim a thrilling 2-2 series draw at the Kia Oval. He was frequently at his best against Australia and finished with 153 wickets against them – the most by any bowler in Tests – which included eight of his 20 five-wicket match hauls and one 10-for. South Africa will be hoping some of Broad's magic can rub off on the likes of Kagiso Rabada and Marco Jansen in their first appearance in the World Test Championship final, which starts on June 11 at Lord's.
