Harvey Elliott took just two matches to score his first goal since leaving Liverpool.

The midfielder made a transfer deadline day loan move to Aston Villa, who are obligated to sign the player permanently for £35 million in the next summer transfer window.

Elliott returned from the international break to debut for the Premier League club when they played Everton last weekend.



John McGinn dispossessed an opposition defender, enabling his new colleague to latch onto the loose ball and slot a finish beneath Brentford goalkeeper Hakon Valdimarsson.

Unfortunately for Elliott, his new side could not maintain their advantage and eventually lost a penalty shootout after Aaron Hickey equalised during the 90 minutes.

Among his former Reds teammates, Tyler Morton offered the most encouragement.

The midfielder, who also departed Anfield this summer for Lyon, responded: "What a guy."

Among those who liked the social media post were current Liverpool players Cody Gakpo, Curtis Jones, Hugo Ekitike, Jeremie Frimpong, Kaide Gordon, Rio Ngumoha, Ryan Gravenberch, Trey Nyoni, Virgil van Dijk, Vitezslav Jaros, and Wataru Endo.
