Perhaps Liverpool will loan him out. It seems much too soon to write him off on Merseyside altogether.
But when you consider what other clubs were also keen, Carvalho may be rueing his decision.
According to the Daily Star, one of those who wanted the youngster were Arsenal. Of course, it has been a remarkable season for the Gunners.
They are well-stocked in attacking areas. But when you consider what Mikel Arteta is building, it is clearly an exciting time for an attacking player to move to the Emirates.
Carvalho was outstanding with Fulham last season, scoring 10 goals and contributing eight assists. And he has previously showed glimpses of his quality in the Premier League, both with the Cottagers and the Reds.
Arsenal’s youngsters are playing with bravery. And whatever they achieve this season, there is real excitement about what they could do in the years to come.
Carvalho would potentially thrive in those surroundings. Certainly, he has the talent to be a ‘fantastic‘ and devastating player.
He must be wondering whether heading to Liverpool was simply the right move at the wrong time for him.
