Harvey Elliott admits struggling with the "ridiculous" conditions as the Liverpool midfielder suffered frustration with England under-21s. The Young Lions were held to a goalless draw by Slovenia in their latest match at the UEFA European Under-21 Championships in Slovakia on Sunday.
Wirtz had grown up in a family that refused to compromise his development, nor that of his sister Juliane, who plays for Werder Bremen.
