Fabio Carvalho SHOWS Arne Slot what he's MISSING

Arne Slot and Richard Hughes might be regretting one of their early transfer decisions already.

While Liverpool were trying desperately to come back from behind against AC Milan in the San Siro, a former player was busy scoring a brilliant overhead kick for his new club.

Fabio Carvalho was supposed to be one of the players who would benefit from Slot joining the club, and was given plenty of minutes during pre season to impress the new manager.

Slot instead decided to cash in, selling Carvalho to Brentford in a decision that was a gut-punch for the player.

The attacking midfielder started his first game for Brentford in the EFL Cup against Leyton Orient on Tuesday evening, and marked the occasion with a stunning overhead kick to drag his side back into a tie they were losing.

Liverpool's big profit on Carvalho

One of Richard Hughes' big wins during the transfer window was his ability to sell squad players for a tidy profit.

Liverpool will receive a guaranteed fee of £22.5m for Carvalho with the possibility of an additional £5m in add-ons. They have also agreed a 17.5% sell-on clause.

However, Fulham will earn 20% of the profit made on Carvalho over £5m, which roughly equates to £2.1m without the add-ons and £3.1m if all the add-ons end up being paid by Brentford.

The Reds spent £7m on Carvalho from Fulham back in 2022 meaning that even if Brentford don't have to pay any additional money in add-ons, Liverpool are guaranteed a minimum profit of £13.4m.

That fee will rise to £17.4m if Brentford end up paying the maximum amount in add-ons.

With or without add-ons, Liverpool are guaranteed to make an impressive profit on Carvalho given his limited impact for the first team.

The quality of his goal tonight suggests he could fulfil the potential he's shown in his young career so far.
