Carvalho will bring over 10 million in profit for Liverpool
Liverpool FC is poised to reap significant financial rewards from Fabio Carvalho’s impending move to Brentford.
The young Portuguese midfielder is set to join the Bees in a deal potentially worth up to £27.5 million, marking a shrewd piece of business for the Reds.
Carvalho, who joined Liverpool from Fulham in 2022 for £7 million, showed early promise but struggled to secure a regular spot in the first team.
His standout moment came early in his Liverpool career when he scored a dramatic late winner against Newcastle.
However, despite an impressive pre-season performance, Carvalho found himself surplus to requirements under new manager Arne Slot.
The transfer deal will see Liverpool receive £22 million upfront, with an additional £5.5 million in performance-related add-ons.

Furthermore, a 17.5 percent sell-on clause has been included, ensuring Liverpool will benefit financially should Carvalho be sold again in the future.
Brentford's acquisition of Carvalho represents a significant investment in a young talent who has demonstrated his capabilities during loan spells with RB Leipzig and Hull City.
Although his time at Liverpool was not as successful as hoped, Carvalho's potential was evident, and his move to Brentford could reignite his career.
Fulham, who originally sold Carvalho to Liverpool, will also receive a financial boost, earning around £5 million due to a 20 percent sell-on clause in the initial agreement.
This transaction shows Liverpool’s adeptness in player trading and bolsters their financial position, enabling further investment in the squad.
