Elliott had looked to have found his new permanent home when he made the temporary switch to Villa Park, under the proviso that his new club would buy him after just 10 league appearances.Unai Emery though quickly decided he didn’t want any part of the proposed $47 million deal, and Elliott has seen his career stall at a time when he would have been hoping to make a late charge for England’s World Cup squad this summer.READ MORE: How many points Liverpool needs to qualify for Champions League after Chelsea lossREAD MORE: Bayern Munich chief addresses Michael Olise 'discussions' after Liverpool transfer linksHe has made just nine appearances across all competitions for Villa, including only three starts.
The good news for him is that his nightmare is almost over.Villa has just five league games remaining this season, and with Elliott only making four Premier League appearances for the club so, he could in theory play a part in all of those remaining games without his transfer clause being triggered.There is also a Europa League semifinal against Nottingham Forest, with the potential for his season to end with some European silverware.Harvey Elliott has made just nine appearances since joining Aston Villa on loan(Image: Matteo Ciambelli/DeFodi via Getty Images)After that, his attention will turn to settling his future this summer, and according to TeamTalk, he won’t be short of options.The report claims that five clubs have already been approached by Elliott’s representatives over a transfer.
