Indeed, he did chip in with a couple of goal contributions during his time in L4, but since his move to Brentford, he’s failed to live up to expectations. He’s often been left on the bench, and as a result of this, he’s looking for a way out of the Gtech Community Stadium, with a new report emerging that could end up benefiting the Reds once again.Liverpool have a 17.5% sell-on clause within Fabio Carvalho’s current deal with BrentfordCarvalho has always been a versatile player as he’s able to play anywhere across the front three as well as in attacking midfield.

He’s played nine times across all competitions for Brentford’s senior team this term, and although he’s contributed to four goals, he still wants to move on. That is, according to a report from Daily Mail journalist Lewis Steele, who shares that the Under-21 Portugal international ‘is not enjoying’ his time with the Bees.Steele outlines that the attacker will be ‘seeking a move away’ if he doesn’t get a regular starting role.The report goes on to say that the Reds have a ‘17.5 per cent’ sell-on clause in their deal with Brentford, and while the financial windfall wouldn’t be anything ‘major’, it’s still going to be a decent amount of money.Liverpool have been smart by including sell-on clauses when selling their young prospectsSince Liverpool’s first-team squad is so full of talent, a lot of their younger players with potential have had to be moved on.

The Reds’ academy is one of the best in the world, and although some, such as Elliott and Carvalho, have joined from other academies, their game only really developed when they joined Liverpool.
