Jasper, 20, also came through at Fulham's academy and was successful in completing a late loan switch to Scottish side Hibernian, while Carvalho's deadline day move to Anfield collapsed at the final hurdle.

Despite the failed move, Carvalho's teammate has shared the pair's ambitions for the future and that he's 'sure' they'll both make it to the top.

"We grew up together at Fulham and came through the ranks together,” Jasper told The Scotsman.

“We want the same from football, we want to play at the top of the game, whether that’s the top five leagues or wherever. We want to play at the pinnacle of football.

“He almost had the opportunity to do that. Unfortunately, it didn’t go through but I’m sure we’ll both get there at the end of the day.”

Liverpool remain interested in Carvalho and attention has now turned to a summer move for the player.

The youngster becomes a free agent at the end of the season and the Reds are clear favourites to negotiate a pre-contract agreement
