Report – It’s happening, star waiting on green light for Liverpool return

Harvey Elliott could reportedly return to Liverpool in January as Valencia considers terminating his loan early, according to Plaza Deportiva. The midfielder moved to the Spanish club on loan in the summer but has struggled for playing time and form. Anfield Watch argues that Liverpool should approve the early termination to avoid further stalling the player's career.

The potential recall follows a difficult loan spell at Aston Villa the previous season, where Elliott saw minimal action due to appearance clauses. Anfield Watch criticizes the handling of former academy players, noting that Liverpool faces homegrown quota challenges after recent transfer windows while also monitoring a buyback clause for Jarell Quansah.
