Xavi Elliott leaves Liverpool? Show farewell gesture, Chelsea may be the inducement

Liverpool's transfer market activity was recorded as the most expanding in the club's history. Liverpool seemed to spend huge sums without hesitation, showing determination to achieve the best results next season.

The introduction of outstanding players like Florian Werz and Hugo Ekitic proves that Liverpool's ambition strategy has indeed exceeded expectations from all parties. Liverpool are even ready to break their transfer record by bringing Alexander Isaac from Newcastle United.

However, at the center of this transfer battle, there is an equally compelling aspect: the release process of the players. Interestingly, Chelsea indirectly triggered a transfer worth £40 million (about 87.1 billion IDR).

Chelsea's incentive to delay the transfer

Have Elliott surfaced as one of the strong candidates who could leave Anfield. The talented midfielder struggled to get enough time throughout last season, which raised great questions about his continued collaboration with Liverpool.

The attention was once again focused on Elliott, after he played against Athletic Bilbao last Monday. His spontaneous behavior when he left the court, blowing a kiss while leaving the audience applause, was impressive, as if it was a farewell ceremony.

Although no club has officially submitted a offer, some parties have begun to show serious interest. It is said that the driving force behind this situation is Chelsea's early operations in the transfer market.

Liverpool opens the transfer, and fresh funds can enter

Liverpool has so far earned more than £100 million from player sales, including transfers from Trent Alexander-Arnold, Kevin Keel, Jarrell Quinasa and Louis Diaz. However, the player's departure may not be over.

If Elliott transfers at a price of about £40 million, this revenue will strengthen Liverpool's purchasing power in chasing its main target.

Chelsea's measures taken in a series of transfers actually creates room for opportunity for other clubs, including in the context of Elliott's future.

Although not a direct player, the dynamics created by Chelsea have acted as a catalyst for market change and now affects the fate of the young Liverpool player.
