Fabio Carvalho: Liverpool starlet's highlights vs RB Salzburg show he's special

One of Liverpool’s newest summer recruits Fabio Carvalho has been catching the eye for all the right reasons this pre-season.

The 19-year-old Portuguese star started in a second-string Liverpool side that lost 1-0 to Red Bull Salzburg on Wednesday evening.

“At the minute he’s not really set on one position – it’s the wing, it’s the eight, it’s the 10, it’s the false nine if
