Liverpool star now ‘frustrated’ at Anfield
Liverpool youngster Fabio Carvalho is growing increasingly frustrated with the lack of playing time at Anfield, journalist Dean Jones has told GIVEMESPORT.
The 20-year-old joined Fulham last summer and perhaps expected Jurgen Klopp to give him a bigger chance in the first team.
Since then, Carvalho has started just four Premier League games for the club, playing 347 minutes in total, according to FBref.
Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano recently told GIVEMESPORT that Bundesliga side RB Leipzig are pushing to sign Carvalho on a permanent basis but Liverpool don’t want to lose full control of the youngster.
Speaking about Carvalho, Klopp revealed he was an ‘amazing’ manager but admitted he was unhappy with his lack of playing time.
He said:
“It’s not that he’s happy with the situation, but he never gives up. It’s unbelievable. I don’t think that was probably his best ability before he came here. because he was super talented – and he still is – but the character he shows here is extraordinary.”
What did Jones say about Carvalho?
Jones has hinted that Carvalho is frustrated with the way his first year at Anfield has gone. Speaking to GIVEMESPORT, he said:
“There are undoubtedly frustrations on his part in the last year of his career. But I think it goes hand in hand with the decision to leave a newly promoted club for a team like Liverpool, who expect to go and challenge for absolutely everything.
“You won’t get into that team, you won’t have countless chances, you have to bide your time, you have to impress in training. As a result, Carvalho clearly wonders if there is another way.” out for him.
“If there is any interest from West Ham then they will have to wait a bit as I don’t think a decision is imminent.”
What is Carvalho’s future? As Jones pointed out, West Ham are one of the sides showing interest in Carvalho.
It appears Klopp does not see Carvalho as a first-team regular, so a temporary move from Anfield may be needed to continue his development.
With new signings expected for the Merseyside club, Carvalho could move further down the pecking order, and with interest from the Bundesliga and Premier League there is little reason not to seek out a loan move.

Nicolo Barella might be able to obtain his ideal Liverpool jersey number after the transfer
Liverpool have long been linked with the transfer of a midfielder from Inter Milan and Italy
Jürgen Klopp has made no secret of his admiration for Nicolo Barella and – in an ideal world – could be the perfect addition to his Liverpool squad.
A box-to-box midfielder with numerous attributes, Barella has long been linked with a move to Anfield as speculation about his future at Inter Milan mounts this summer. That said, there is a complication or two when it comes to a proposed transfer to Liverpool.
After initial plans to target Jude Bellingham were scrapped due to the huge financial cost, price remains an issue.
Even if they decide to capitalize on their star player, Inter would like around £80m for Barella, who still has three years on his contract.
However, reports from Italian publication Il Tempo suggest the figure could actually be closer to €80m (£68m). However, other clubs like Newcastle United are hiding behind his commitment anyway.
Another point to consider is that Liverpool are not securing their place in the Champions League.
However, the Reds still have enormous power and if all goes to plan their ban from Europe’s top competition will only last 12 months if they finish in the top four again next season.
Perhaps the biggest problem comes from the player itself. Inter are said to be ‘open’ to a sale but conflicting reports suggest Barella is ‘happy’ with the San Siro and has no intention of leaving the club.
This is where Klopp and his public admiration could come in. Depending on the financial means, the 26-year-old would obviously be welcomed with open arms at Anfield.
Should he ever land, a dream jersey number awaits – with a little catch. Barella currently wears Inter’s number 23 and has worn it since arriving from Cagliari three summers ago.
Of course, that particular shirt is currently worn by Luis Diaz, but there’s a chance the Colombian will decide to switch to the club’s legendary No.7 after James Milner dropped him when he left. Other team numbers now available include: 8, 9, 12, 15, 16, 24 and 25 – plus other options in the 30s and 40s.
