21-year-old set for Liverpool lifeline after Jurgen Klopp departure

Fabio Carvalho could get another opportunity with Liverpool after Jurgen Klopp’s departure.

Fabio Carvalho could get a golden opportunity to establish himself in the Liverpool team next season. The 21-year-old will return to his parent club in the summer and according to Football Insider, he will be given an opportunity to impress the new manager.

After an impressive rise at Fulham, the 21-year-old Portuguese youth international joined Liverpool in the summer of 2022. In his first season at the club, Carvalho had less than 700 minutes of first-team football.

He was unlikely to have an important role under Jurgen Klopp in the second season as well, as a result, they ended up sending him out on loan to RB Leipzig at the start of the 2023/24 season. Things didn’t go according to plan for him at the German club as he was left on the bench more often than not.

He returned to his parent club in the winter before joining Hull City on a short loan spell for the second half of the season.

Hull City unlikely to sign Fabio Carvalho

The 21-year-old seems to be enjoying his time at the Championship club. He has featured in 17 matches and has scored eight goals for the Tigers who are pushing for a Championship play-off place.

While Hull City would love to sign the attacking midfielder on a permanent basis, they can’t afford to carry out the deal. He will return to his parent club in the summer and according to Pete O’Rourke, Carvalho will be given the opportunity to salvage his Liverpool career.

The Portuguese youth international will be a part of their pre-season camp and he will have the opportunity to establish himself as an important part of their squad under Jurgen Klopp’s successor.
