Jurgen Klopp has insisted that Fabinho will get his chance to impress at Liverpool following his summer arrival, as reported by the Independent.
The Brazilian international completed a big-money move to Anfield early in the summer transfer window after establishing himself as one of the most sought-after midfielders in world football.
Fabinho, though, has not yet featured for Liverpool in their Premier League campaign, with Klopp even excluding him from his 18-man squads in recent times.
This is nothing to do with the midfielder’s current condition nor performance, Klopp has insisted, as competition for places in the middle heat up at Anfield.
It’s good to have the situation as one might need a bit of time, or the others are more used to it. That’s the only reason. But he will come back. And now we have games every three days, and he has made big steps in the last few weeks. He could even play at the moment.
Naby Keita, Jordan Henderson, Georginio Wijnaldum and James Milner are all in impressive form for the Reds, indicating that Fabinho has been made to wait for his chance ahead of a busy schedule for the team.
Fabinho will now be keen to feature for Brazil as they gear up for fixtures against the United States and El Salvador.
Hopefully, now Fabinho has games with Brazil, and then after he comes back we have games, games, games. We have the whole of September a lot of games, only against top teams. We need all of the players, that’s good.
We have come through the period where it looked like we didn’t need all of them because we played quite a consistent line-up and the level in training was high.
That’s all cool. Hopefully, they all come back healthy as we have to use them all because of the number of games.
