Harvey Elliott has opened up for the first time on his decision to leave Liverpool, admitting he had to be 'selfish' for the better of his career.
The young Englishman sealed a move away from Anfield after six years at the club on Deadline Day, joining Aston Villa on a season-long loan.
The Villans have an obligation to make the move a permanent one next summer for a fee worth £35million, meaning Elliott's Liverpool career is all but over.
Having been something of a regular under Jurgen Klopp, the Surrey-born midfielder found minutes harder to come by last season under Arne Slot - something he now admits played a big part in his decision to leave the club.
