Harvey Elliott gets second chance at Valencia after failed Villa loan

Liverpool midfielder Harvey Elliott is set for a second chance at Valencia under new manager Javier Aguirre after a disastrous loan spell at Aston Villa, with his Anfield future now hanging in the balance. The 23-year-old has struggled since being viewed as a future Liverpool star, suffering a serious injury and an unsuccessful Villa stint. Aguirre plans to focus on Elliott's emotional rebuilding and tactical restart, adapting his system to suit the player's strengths. Elliott's loan has no buy option, leaving his Liverpool future uncertain with one year left on his contract next summer. He must prove his fitness, consistency and application under new Liverpool manager Andoni Iraola to avoid being sold.
