Harvey Elliott is prepared to give Liverpool another crack after a tough campaign at Aston Villa saw his future at the club cast into doubt.
The 23-year-old midfielder was loaned to Villa for much of last season but the transfer didn’t work out as intended.
According to BBC, Elliott featured in just nine times in total for 277 minutes and Villa decided against making his move permanent.
Back at his boyhood club now, Elliott believes the appointment of new Liverpool head coach Andoni Iraola has offered him a second chance to make his mark at Anfield.
The midfielder has played for Liverpool in the United States as part of their pre-season preparations, looking to show the new boss he deserves to be in the squad.
Elliott has also responded to claims that his time at Villa was a waste, citing his part in the club’s Europa League triumph and the experience he earned during his stint.
The England Under-21 international acknowledged he intended to leave Liverpool last summer but things have changed.
Elliott is ready to move on from last season’s setback under Iraola and is determined to get his career back on track.
The midfielder faces stiff competition for a starting spot in Liverpool’s midfield and attacking positions but his technical ability and adaptability could work in his favour.
