Liverpool midfielder Harvey Elliott has made just seven appearances for Aston Villa since his loan move, with none since October. On deadline day, he secured a season-long loan to Aston Villa, which could become a permanent £30million deal if he meets a certain number of appearances.However, Elliott's hopes of making Thomas Tuchel's England World Cup squad have dwindled due to another challenging season.

His chances are not only hampered by fierce competition for places in the Three Lions' squad, but also by his limited game time at Villa Park.Elliott, who has only made seven appearances in all competitions and hasn't been included in a matchday squad since October, is facing an uncertain future. Despite impressing Villa's coaching staff with his dedication and effort in training, he has been consistently overlooked by Villa manager Unai Emery.Emery has virtually confirmed that Villa will not be signing him on a permanent basis, leaving Elliott's immediate future up in the air.

While the agreement could be cancelled, this doesn't take into account that Liverpool's management likely factored his sale into their budget.Harvey Elliott has been left in limbo. Elliott's brief appearance for Liverpool against Newcastle at the start of the campaign means the deal can't be cancelled just to loan him out again.If he were to return to Anfield, he would have to spend the rest of the season with Liverpool.
