Liverpool attacking midfielder Harvey Elliott looks set to leave his loan spell with Aston Villa because of limited playing time. As reported by Fabrizio Romano yesterday, Elliott has been attracting interest from MLS club Charlotte FC, but it seems this is not currently a move that would appeal to him.

I think the time has come for Richarlison to move on. He's never been a player who the club are completely prepared to put their faith in, they know what he can do at his best, but too often he won't be at that level.
