Before Liverpool's upcoming match against Leeds United, Slot spoke candidly about Elliott's situation, acknowledging that Emery is responsible for addressing the issue.

Slot stated that he hasn't had extensive communication with Elliott, only speaking with him a few times, including before and after a match against Feyenoord. He emphasized that any questions about Elliott's situation should be directed to Aston Villa management.

Elliott has only played a limited 96 minutes in the Premier League this season, with his last appearance coming on September 28th against Fulham. With his playing time unlikely to increase significantly, many are speculating that he may be recalled to Liverpool in the January transfer window.
