RB Leipzig had high hopes when they signed Portuguese offensive player Fábio Carvalho on loan last summer. But now there is a turning point.
Offensive player Fábio Carvalho is returning early from RB Leipzig to Liverpool FC and coach Jürgen Klopp. The clubs ended the 21-year-old’s original one-year loan early, as both clubs announced on Sunday. Carvalho came to the Saxons in the summer and played 15 competitive games for Leipzig, only three of which were in the starting line-up.
“Fábio fit in well with us, but ultimately both sides were hoping for a lot more – Fábio, of course, above all, more playing time,” said RB sports director Rouven Schröder. “However, due to the high quality and performance density of our squad in his position, we cannot guarantee him this.”
A good two weeks ago, Schröder denied that the Portuguese was leaving early. Transfer market expert Fabrizio Romano had previously reported on the Internet platform X, formerly Twitter, that Liverpool had contacted Leipzig because the English were dissatisfied with the 21-year-old’s playing times. Schröder explained in mid-December that the attacking midfielder should be given more playing time.
