Harvey Elliott News: Not with squad

Elliott is not with the Villa squad before a Thursday trip to Basel, and isn't likely to remain with the club, per manager Unai Emery."Firstly, my decision and also the situation. He is on loan playing with us, but he is not definitely adding to us with a permanent contract."

Elliott has struggled to find playing time on loan with Aston Villa, and since he's already played for two clubs this season the only way he could play would be a return for Liverpool. With Florian Wirtz and Dominik Szoboszlai it's unclear if the Reds have space, or interest, in bringing Elliott back for the current season.
