Liverpool loanee Harvey Elliott's future at Aston Villa has been in doubt since Villa boss Unai Emery decided he did not want to make his move from Anfield permanent, but he is now expected to remain at Villa Park at least until the end of the season.

"Obviously Villa are doing really well this season, I don't think Liverpool really fancy him because they've loaned him out, so he's in that precarious position where neither side really wants him."
