"Liverpool travel to Villa on Friday, with Elliott unable to play against his parent club. The winners will book a place in next season's Champions League. Elliott's only league start this season came in September - against Fulham, when he was taken off at half time - and he has not played in the league since February."
"Elliott won Euro 2025 with England Under-21s and was named player of the tournament after scoring five goals. He joined Villa hoping to force his way into the senior team for the World Cup, but U21 team-mate Elliot Anderson has won seven caps to become a regular under manager Thomas Tuchel. Elliott has interest from clubs in the Premier League and Europe, but he is not expected to have a future at Liverpool while Arne Slot is in charge."
Harvey Elliott’s season-long loan at Aston Villa has produced very limited Premier League playing time, totaling 109 minutes across the season. Aston Villa had an obligation to make the transfer permanent for £35 million if Elliott reached 10 league appearances, but he has made only four. Villa wanted Elliott to return to Liverpool in January, but the clubs could not agree. Unai Emery said explaining the decision is difficult and offered daily apologies to Elliott while emphasizing shared responsibilities with Liverpool. Liverpool and Villa meet on Friday, and Elliott cannot play against his parent club. Elliott has not played in the league since February and has only one league start this season. He previously won Euro 2025 with England Under-21s and was named player of the tournament.
