Harvey Elliott, who is on loan at Aston Villa from Liverpool, has no interest of moving to the MLS despite interest from Charlotte FC, according to BBC’s Nick Mashiter.

Elliott’s loan spell at Aston Villa has taken an increasingly complicated turn, with the playmaker finding himself on the fringes of Aston Villa’s plans despite hopes of a fresh start away from Anfield.

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.

His brief reappearance towards the end of January hinted at a possible reintegration, but it has not altered the broader picture.

With the Premier League transfer window now closed, it appeared Elliott would be forced to wait out the remainder of the season on the margins.
