Emery expressed his thoughts on the situation, saying, "We are discussing his circumstances and his situation. He is not currently with us. We are hoping to find a solution that benefits both him and the team."

Emery also acknowledged Elliott's skills and character, stating, "He is a talented player and a good person. He is training well, but there is a specific circumstance surrounding him."

Emery has spoken with Elliott multiple times, discussing the situation and his options. He noted that Elliott's loan status and his own decision-making are factors in the current situation.

The situation is further complicated by the fact that Elliott has already played for Liverpool this season, which may limit his ability to play for another team before June.
