Sunderland are interested in signing Harvey Elliott from Liverpool, according to Football Insider, with the 23-year-old looking to sort out his future.

Elliott spent last season on loan at Aston Villa but struggled to nail down a regular starting position with the West Midlands club during his time there.

Aston Villa had an option to make his move permanent this summer, but the club have decided against taking up that opportunity to sign him.

The midfielder originally left Liverpool last summer with the aim of securing consistent first-team football on a weekly basis.

Having failed to establish himself at Aston Villa, Elliott now needs to find a new club ahead of the upcoming campaign without delay.

Sunderland have emerged as a potential destination, though a deal will require an agreement to be reached between the two clubs and the player.

The Championship club made an impressive return to the Premier League during their first season back in the top flight after winning promotion.

Sunderland finished in the top half of the Premier League table and also secured European football for the upcoming season, a significant achievement.

With European competition added to their schedule, Sunderland will need to strengthen their squad with quality additions during the summer transfer window.

Elliott is viewed as someone who could contribute meaningfully to their ambitions, having previously demonstrated his quality during his time at Liverpool.

The Liverpool midfielder is capable of operating centrally as well as out wide, giving any manager flexibility in how they could deploy him.

His ability to create chances in the final third and contribute goals could make him a valuable asset for Sunderland as they compete on multiple fronts.
