Valencia interested in loan for Liverpool's Elliott
Valencia are in talks with Liverpool to take midfielder Harvey Elliott on loan for the rest of the season.
Liverpool midfielder Harvey Elliott is set to join Valencia on loan for the remainder of the season. The 23-year-old had a brief stint last year on loan at Aston Villa, making just one Premier League appearance. Valencia, who finished ninth in La Liga the previous season and failed to secure a European spot, has been searching for a financially viable solution to arrange the loan.
The Spanish club requires Liverpool to shoulder half of Elliott's wages. The specifics of the wage division remain uncertain. There is no contractual obligation for Valencia to purchase Elliott during the loan. Elliott, a former England Under-21 international, joined Liverpool from Fulham at the age of 16 in 2019. He spent the 2020-21 season on loan at Blackburn Rovers in the Championship.
Liverpool's defensive midfielder Stefan Bajcetic has signed a permanent contract with his hometown club Celta Vigo.
