Fabio Carvalho and his management team have offered a hint that the youngster intends to fight for his place at Liverpool beyond his new loan spell.
The Reds allowed the youngster to depart for RB Leipzig, with Dominik Szoboszlai also destined to head in the opposite direction as part of an unrelated deal. It comes after a first season at Liverpool with limited game time for the former Fulham man.
This will mark the first time in the 20-year-old's professional senior career that he has played outside of England, and offers an exciting prospect.
