Liverpool midfielder Harvey Elliott admits he is proud to have captained England U21s this week.

Elliott is back with Liverpool after leading England U21 in two games.

He told liverpoolfc.com: "It was probably up there with one of the best, I'd say. It's always a pleasure to play for your national team, and there's no better feeling than scoring and assisting. But to get the armband as well, it's something I'll remember for the rest of my life.

"Confidence-wise, it's through the roof at the moment. I feel like it can help me and my performances coming back. You're able to take that confidence into club football now, apply that, and hopefully do the same things you were doing in the games away [with England], you can bring to the table for club football.

"That's exactly what I'm looking to do."
