Liverpool midfielder Harvey Elliott is poised to join Valencia on a season-long loan, marking another chapter in his career. The 23-year-old previously spent last season on loan at Aston Villa, where he made only one Premier League start.

Valencia, who finished ninth in La Liga last season and missed out on European competition, has been exploring ways to make the loan financially viable. Key details include:

• Elliott has yet to undergo a medical at Valencia.
• The La Liga transfer window closes on Tuesday at 23:00 BST.
• Valencia is negotiating for Liverpool to cover half of Elliott's wages, but the exact split remains unclear.
• There is no option or obligation for Valencia to purchase Elliott at the end of the loan.

Despite featuring regularly in Liverpool's pre-season under new head coach Andoni Iraola, Elliott has been excluded from the club's first two Premier League matchday squads. The young talent's contract with Liverpool runs until 2028, having joined the club from Fulham at the age of 16 in 2019, and previously spent the 2020-21 season on loan at Blackburn Rovers in the Championship.
