Liverpool's attacking midfielder Harvey Elliott officially joins Valencia on-loan..

Valencia announced on their official website on Wednesday that Liverpool's England international attacking midfielder Harvey Elliott has joined the club on-loan.

According to Valencia's official statement, Elliott will play for the club on-loan until the end of the season, and the loan agreement does not include any option to buy. He will also wear the number 10 shirt.

After completing his transfer procedures, Elliott, who was interviewed by the Valencia official website, said: "It's been a very busy but also very enjoyable time. I'm happy to be here. Now all the important things are settled, and hopefully I can rejoin the team as soon as possible and be ready for the weekend's match."

"I've always longed for the opportunity to come here, get consistent playing time, and experience different leagues. I'm very grateful to Valencia for giving me this opportunity. I'm ready to start playing, but whether I'll ultimately play depends on the coach's decision."

"Valencia is a club with a long history, both in La Liga and across Europe. Over the years, many outstanding players have emerged from here, such as David Silva and David Villa. Personally, I greatly admire David Silva because of his excellent performances and playing style. I hope to reach his level, but at the same time, I also want to create my own history with the club this season."

"I want to help the team go further and hopefully qualify for European competition, because I believe this club deserves that honor. It's a great club, and I think the fans should experience that honor again."

"Giorgi (Mamardashvili - Liverpool's Georgia international goalkeeper) told me the fans here are amazing. When you're not in form, they support you and never give up. When you win and perform well, they are the best fans you can have.”

“He also said the city is fantastic. We chatted for a while, although I didn't want to ask too much to avoid giving away information. But Giorgi raved about the city, and especially the club. I'm very excited and looking forward to experiencing it for myself.”

“For me, working hard means giving my all in every game and every training session. That's a quality you have to have as a player. I'd be very happy to help in that way.” "I want to help the team, and I also believe I can contribute my creativity, assists, and goals in attack."

"In that sense, I see myself as an playmaker. Whatever the team needs, I'm willing to lend a hand. I want to fully utilize all my strengths and do my best to help the team win games. I believe I can do it."

About Harvey Elliott

Born on April 4, 2003, in Chetsey, London, England, the 23-year-old Elliott is 1.7 meters tall and primarily plays as an attacking midfielder, but can also play as a right winger. He has been a Liverpool fan since childhood.

Elliott played for the youth academies of Queens Park Rangers and Fulham as a child, and completed his Fulham first-team debut by coming on as a substitute in an Carabao Cup match in September 2018, breaking the record to become the youngest player to ever appear in an English football match.

In July 2019, Elliott joined Liverpool from Fulham for £4.3 million, becoming one of the most expensive under-16s players in English football history.

The following October, Elliott was loaned-out to Blackburn Rovers. Upon his return in the summer of 2021, he quickly became a regular starter for Liverpool's first-team.

During his six-year spell at Liverpool, Elliott made 149 appearances in all competitions, scoring 15 goals and providing 20 assists, where he helped the team win two Carbao Cups, one Premier League title, one FA Cup, one Community Shield, one UEFA Super Cup, one FIFA Club World Cup, and reached the UEFA Champions League final once.

Furthermore, he set a record in the 2023/24 Premier League season by becoming the English player with the highest Expected Assist (xA) value (3.3), and in the summer of 2025, he won the UEFA Under-21s European Championship with the England U21s national team.

On the 2025 summer transfer window deadline day, Elliott joined Aston Villa on-loan with a mandatory buy option.

According to the loan agreement, the £35 million mandatory buy option would be automatically triggered once Elliott made 10 Premier League appearances for the Villa side.

However, Liverpool also retained a buy-back clause and the right to recall Elliott early.

But since joining Villa, Aston Villa have deliberately hampered Elliott's opportunity, in order to deliberately avoid triggering the mandatory buy option, they only giving him meaningless substitute appearances near the end of matches in all competitions.

Despite this, he still won the UEFA Europa League title with the Premier League powerhouse.
