AI summary

Valencia has abandoned its stated policy of avoiding loan signings this summer, bringing in Harvey Elliott from Liverpool, goalkeeper Van Oevelen from Ipswich Town, and Pablo Maffeo from Olympiacos in recent weeks. Since Meriton's 2014 takeover, the club has relied on 58 loan players, retaining only 15 permanently. The €5m+ investment in Arnau Martínez exhausted funds for attacking reinforcements, pushing the club back to the loan market despite pledging to avoid it.
