Fabio Carvalho has admitted he would have liked to have played a more prominent role in Liverpool's hunt for Champions League football of late - but insists his first season on Merseyside has highlighted the importance of remaining patient.
The 20-year-old made the move to Anfield from Fulham during the summer of 2022, just months after the Reds had failed with a deadline January swoop for the then Championship starlet. However, since making his debut as a late substitute during August's 2-2 draw at his former club Fulham, Carvalho has played just 324 minutes in the Premier League.
And since Liverpool's return to action after the mid-season World Cup in November and December, the forward has made Jurgen Klopp's starting XI on just two occasions; firstly in the League Cup defeat to Manchester City in December before being handed a starting berth at Molineux in the FA Cup replay back in January.
