Fábio Leandro Freitas Gouveia Carvalho (born 30 August 2002) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays as a winger or attacking midfielder for Premier League club Liverpool.

A former youth international for England, Carvalho now represents Portugal internationally at under-21 level.

Early life

Carvalho was born in Torres Vedras, in the Lisbon District of Portugal and grew up in Zona J, Chelas.[4] His father is Angolan and his mother is from Madeira.[5] He has an older brother and a younger sister.[6] He played in the youth academy of Olivais Sul and Benfica. At the age of 11, he moved with his family to South London.[7][4] He played for Balham before being signed by Fulham in 2015.[8] He is fluent in both Portuguese and English.[9]

Club career

Fulham

In May 2020, Carvalho signed his first professional contract with Fulham, for two years.[10] On 23 September, Carvalho made his first-team debut as a substitute in a 2–0 EFL Cup victory over Sheffield Wednesday.[11] On 15 May 2021, Carvalho scored his first goal in a 3–1 away league defeat to Southampton.[12]

Carvalho had an impressive start to the 2021–22 season, scoring three goals in his first five matches as Fulham looked to return to the Premier League. As a result, Carvalho was awarded the EFL Young Player of the Month for August 2021.[13]

Liverpool

Carvalho agreed to sign for Premier League club Liverpool in May 2022 for a reported fee of £5 million, potentially rising to £7.7 million with add-ons. The transfer became official on 1 July and Carvalho was officially unveiled two days later.[14][15] He scored his first goal for the club on 27 August in a 9–0 home win over AFC Bournemouth in the Premier League.[16] Four days later, on 31 August, he scored a 98th minute match-winning goal during a 2–1 victory against Newcastle United at Anfield.[17]

International career

Carvalho has represented England up to under-18 level.[10]

Carvalho was called up to Portugal's under-21 team on 17 March 2022, ahead of European Championship qualifying games against Iceland and Greece.[18]

In October 2022, he was named in Portugal's preliminary 55-man squad for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.[19] However, he was not selected as part of the final 26-man squad.[citation needed]
