Liverpool star Fabinho has stated that he is “very happy” to have been integrated into Jurgen Klopp’s first-team plans.
The Brazilian international was signed from AS Monaco in the summer but endured a difficult start to his tenure at Anfield, as Klopp often overlooked him for matchday squads.
However, Fabinho has since played an involved role for his side and has started in consecutive fixtures for the first time since his move. The midfielder turned in accomplished displays against Red Star Belgrade in the Champions League and against Cardiff City in the Premier League on Saturday.
As quoted by ESPN, Fabinho delivered an update on how he is progressing at his new club, insisting that he is enjoying his football following a testing introduction to life with Liverpool.
The holding midfielder, who impressed many with a strong display against Cardiff, said:
I’m very happy to play my second match in a row as first-choice, played the full match. It is very good for me. This moment to adapt, it hasn’t been easy – many times you are out, there were many times I wasn’t [picked].
But I tried to learn from all this, tried to give my best during practice. The coaches were very nice to me, they didn’t let me get down. I worked to be well prepared.
Fabinho will be keen to retain his place for Liverpool’s next Premier League clash against Arsenal.
