Juan Manuel Serrano Arce/Getty Images Valencia boss Javier Aguirre has highlighted efforts to sharpen certain aspects of Liverpool loanee Harvey Elliott’s game, with the midfielder adapting well to the guidance. In last month’s clash against Villarreal, Elliott was sent off just minutes after coming off the bench, further complicating his situation at the club.
Suggestions then emerged that the red card incident had proved the ‘final straw’ in his Valencia spell, with Elliott no longer featuring in Aguirre’s plans. Ahead of the encounter, Aguirre pointed out the work being carried out behind the scenes to refine certain aspects of Elliott’s game, while expressing satisfaction with how well the midfielder has responded to those efforts.
“And he’s done well.” The Valencia boss has also previously praised Elliott’s rapid progress in learning Spanish. A return to Anfield in January was ruled out last month, but should Elliott’s situation fail to improve, his loan spell in Spain could yet be brought to an early end.
