"The 22-year-old joined Villa from Liverpool on deadline day last September, but his situation under head coach Unai Emery has become awkward. Elliott arrived in the Midlands with a significant clause attached to his loan, once he reaches 10 appearances, a 35 million obligation to buy is triggered. However, he currently sits on just seven appearances, largely because he was frozen out for almost four months between October and late January."
"Major League Soccer's transfer window remains open until the end of March, and several MLS clubs explored a move for Elliott in recent weeks. Charlotte FC were among the most prominent admirers, viewing the England youth international as a marquee signing who could elevate their attacking play. Elliott has decided he has no interest in a move to the United States at this stage of his career."
Harvey Elliott is on loan at Aston Villa from Liverpool and currently sits on seven appearances, below the ten needed to trigger a 35 million obligation to buy. He was frozen out for almost four months between October and late January, briefly reappearing at the end of January without changing his peripheral status. The Premier League window is closed, but MLS transfer window remains open until the end of March, with Charlotte FC among clubs that explored a move. Elliott has no interest in moving to MLS and is expected to remain at Villa Park until his loan expires.
