Fabio Carvalho Signs for Liverpool

You do have to laugh though don't you. 

All month both clubs have had and it boils down to the final seconds of the window and collapses xD

Every single time. 

Liverpool probably haven't planned to try and get this one done this month but interest from others has seen them make their move late in the window. Nevertheless it seems Liverpool have put themselves in a good position to sign him in the summer.

It's probably been manufactured to be honest. We won't have wanted to sign him now and essentially give 6 months of his contract back to Fulham. 

I'm sure an agreement is already in place for the summer where he joins us then and we get the full 5 years of his contract.

David Lynch saying that a deal has been struck between us and Fulham for him to move in the summer, but rather than pay a tribunal we pay the fee we were going to pay in January.

Lynch is fairly reliable, but as with all Liverpool news... it's a good idea to wait for Joyce and Pearce as they're probably the most reliable LFC journos out there.

I wonder if they think agreeing a fee is better than what they'd get from the tribunal fee. I'm not so sure, tbh - I dunno what the tribunal fee was for Harvey Elliott but for Ings it was pretty large I think.

Maybe they'd like a guaranteed amount rather than putting things in the hands of a tribunal? Hope it goes through though, seems to be the right kind of young player to do well with us... but I feel with how well he's doing this season at Fulham it would be a shame to derail him by taking him away from the good situation he's in right now - which is probably beneficial to his development as a player.

What on Earth is a tribunal fee? Is that Roman Republican tax system?

When a player under 24 moves clubs after their contract has expired there's a group of people that gather up and hear evidence from both clubs (and in the Danny Ings case, Spurs allegedly submitted evidence saying they would have paid a shitload for Ings to bump up the price for us for some reason) and come up with a non-negotiable fee that the club that signed the player has to pay the club that lost the player.

I think Ings has the record tribunal fee, Chelsea paid £6.5m to City when he joined them. That one used to be the record until Ings.

Why do tribunal fees exist? I'm not sure tbh.

I think we paid Fulham a bit under £5m for Harvey Elliott so it looks like they want at least £5m for Carvalho.

Not sure about Pearce. Got a fair bit wrong recently. Paul Joyce only ever tweets when he's got concrete info

We definitely did that 😂

I really rate him from what I've seen this season and his ceiling could be a top six club. 

It would take a period of adapting given Fulham play a possession  based 4-2-3-1 and he naturally drifts in to the number 10 role even if he's out wide but I was impressed with how Harvey Elliot adapted his game to be a CM that drifted out right to link up Trent and Salah before his injury.

Wont he be more expensive in the summer now the move broke down?

No, he is out of contract in the summer and I doubt you'd have to pay much more than what you were going to at a tribunal.

The only difference will be to expect more competition for his signature, especially if others attempt to offer more wages/guarantee of first team football.

In fairness, Fulham may already have an agreement in principle with Liverpool and the I's and T's just need dotting and crossing end of the season.

Liverpool have new direct contact scheduled with Fabio Carvalho’s camp and Fulham in February - both clubs still working to find a solution after deal collapsed on Deadline Day. 🔴🇵🇹 #LFC Medical tests were already completed, personal terms agreed too - Klopp wants Carvalho.

why would fulham sell him for January fee when they may win automatic promotion and sell him for double

They won't be getting double what Liverpool offered last month in the summer from a tribunal fee.

He's a great talent that I believe will easily quadruple in value, probably even more to be frank. So the fee is an absolute steal really.

What's exciting for Liverpool fans is I don't think they realise the kind of talent they have on their hands here and with the right nurturing, he could be very explosive as soon as next season. I've no doubts he will fit this level as well as Harvey Elliott has found it.

Where does he fit into the Liverpool team? Am I right that he's a number 10 at Fulham? Could he play as one of the midfield three as Elliott has done or are we more likely to see him as a front three player?

Some people have suggested he might fit in the Firmino role rather than as a midfielder.

I know fuck all about him other than his highlight real looks very impressive for someone that young though.

  • The title was changed to Fabio Carvalho Signs for Liverpool

 

It will be interesting to see how Jurgen Klopp moulds him. He's done a good job changing Harvey Elliott's role and given he's been used often in a free role for Fulham roaming in the number 10 position there's quite a big blank slate for Jurgen to work with over the next couple of years.
