Brentford have signed winger Fabio Carvalho from Liverpool in a deal worth £27.5 million, including add-ons.
The 21-year-old, who spent last season on loan at RB Leipzig and Hull City, has joined Brentford on a five-year contract with an option for an additional year.
Liverpool will receive an initial fee of £22.5 million and have secured a 17.5% sell-on clause. Fulham, who sold Carvalho to Liverpool in 2022, will receive 20% of the profit from his transfer to Brentford.
Brentford edged out Southampton, who had a £15 million bid rejected by Liverpool, for Carvalho’s signature.
Carvalho struggled to establish himself at Anfield, scoring three goals in 21 competitive appearances.
He joined Leipzig on a season-long loan at the start of the 2023-24 campaign but returned in December after primarily coming off the bench, before moving to Championship side Hull City.
At Hull, he scored nine goals in 20 games, helping them narrowly miss out on the play-offs.
