Liverpool star Carvalho is ‘fed up and wants to get out’ despite Klopp plea

Jurgen Klopp reviews Liverpool's 4-4 draw with Southampton

Liverpool playmaker Fabio Carvalho is reportedly unhappy with his situation currently and is hoping to leave the club his summer. The Reds were hopeful of allowing the 20-year-old to go out on loan this summer, though the player is said to prefer a permanent departure despite being heavily praised by Jurgen Klopp.

Carvalho was signed by Liverpool last summer from Fulham in a deal worth £5million plus add-ons. However, the Portugal under-21 star has hardly featured in Merseyside this season and is said to have grown tired of working hard behind the scenes but not being rewarded for his efforts.

The versatile attacker made just 13 appearances for Liverpool in the Premier League, with most of those coming as late cameos. His matches have amounted to just 341 minutes overall.

Reports have circulated that the prospect could now push to leave the Reds as a result, with clubs from across Europe monitoring his situation and Klopp even hinting that a problem was brewing when praising the ‘unbelievable’ work rate of the ex-Fulham star. That is also the feeling within the Carvalho camp, according to podcaster Jack Collins.

He told the Ranks FC podcast: “He is deeply unhappy with what has happened this season, that’s from a base of genuine knowledge. I can tell you he’s a very, very fed-up kid right now.

“He is very unhappy and I think there are genuine signs from his camp that he wants to get out of there permanently because he feels let down.” RB Leipzig have already seen a bid knocked back for Carvalho this summer and it would be no surprise if the Germans returned with a second improved offer.

Klopp will certainly be understanding of the situation given that he has deployed Carvalho as a No 10 on numerous occasions but now has made it no secret that he would like to welcome more midfielders to his squad this summer – closing in on the signing of Brighton’s Alexis Mac Allister.

The German boss has also praised Carvalho’s attitude in training and commitment, saying in April: “Fabio is training exceptionally, to be honest. For the situation in which he is now, in training on an absolutely super level and not being involved, how he deals with it, I have to say, that’s kind of a role model. Not that he is happy with the situation, but he never gives up. It’s unbelievable.

“I don’t think it was probably his best skill before he arrived here because he was this super, super talent — which he still is — but the character he shows here is exceptional.”

Given that Klopp has admitted that he was aware of Carvalho’s growing unhappiness, it remains to be seen whether the former Borussia Dortmund boss green-lights his permanent exit or can offer him more opportunities next season.
