Elliott seals Villa move.

A deal that would have seen Harvey Elliott transfer to RB Leipzig from Liverpool has fallen through, and now the Liverpool midfielder will transfer to Premier League rivals Aston Villa on transfer deadline.

This is a massive coup for Unai Emery's side, who have been apparently tracking Elliott for the whole window.



Elliott checks those boxes while offering positional elasticity: he can play as a right-sided eight, a narrow right winger, or a No.10.

Deadline day saw Liverpool busy at both ends of the market; moving Elliott now reduces congestion in the attacking midfield/wing roles and converts academy investment into a sizable fee if the obligation triggers

Multiple reliable outlets framed Villa’s approach as advanced and close to completion, aligning with Liverpool’s late-window adjustments elsewhere.

It is understood that Elliott will be an important member of Villa's squad, and guaranteed time on the pitch for Emery's side.

Villa gain a plug-and-play creator with Premier League seasoning; Liverpool gain flexibility and a strong fee pathway; Elliott gains the regular starts he needs to turn promise into production
