Jurgen Klopp says he his "Over the Moon" over new signing Fabio Carvalho


Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has expressed his delight at bringing Fabio Carvalho to Anfield this summer.

The Reds verified they had signed the 19-year-old back in May, after Fulham’s season came to a close.

Liverpool attempted to sign Carvalho back in January but they ran out of time to finalize the deal on Deadline Day.

Nevertheless, the Reds maintained their concern in the teenager and went on to sign him for £5million plus add-ons.

Carvalho linked up with Liverpool at the start of July and has already been impressing his new teammates.

Fabio Carvalho training with his new team

“When we watched him it was a pure joy to watch him, absolutely.

“He can play so many numerous positions for us, the way we play.

“At the minute he’s not really set on one direction.

“It’s the wing, it’s the eight, it’s the 10, it’s the false nine if he grows a few more muscles.

“It’s a short-term and a long-term project.

“He can start tomorrow and he needs to adapt, you can see that a little bit, but when he has the ball that’s proper quality.

“I’m over the moon that he’s here. Incredible prospect.
