Fabio Carvalho is on loan from Liverpool FC until the end of the season, but is not happy at RB Leipzig. The British club would probably like to bring the player back early.

Bundesliga - "Power games": Schröder denies Carvalho's departure

RB Leipzig's sporting director Rouven Schröder has denied a premature departure of Liverpool loanee Fabio Carvalho. "These are typical power games that end up happening," said the 48-year-old after the 2:1 win against Young Boys Bern in the Champions League. Carvalho played 90 minutes in the match for the first time this season.

Transfer market expert Fabrizio Romano had previously claimed on the internet platform X, formerly Twitter, that Liverpool FC had contacted Leipzig as they were unhappy with the 21-year-old's playing time. The plan is to bring the attacking midfielder back ahead of schedule in January. However, Schröder does not want to play along. "He will get more playing time. That's not an issue for us," said the sporting director.

They are happy with Carvalho and want "the boy to bite". The Portuguese was loaned out by Leipzig in the summer after only getting playing time in the first few weeks of his first season at Liverpool. He is set to take the next step in his development with the Saxons.
