"Liverpool sent their scouts to watch" dazzling 19-year-old that super-agent wants to take to Anfield

Liverpool sent scouts to watch dazzling Fulham teenager, Fabio Carvalho, according to Fabrizio Romano, after a previous report suggest super-agent Jorge Mendes wants his client to move to Anfield.

The 19-year-old is highly-rated across Europe and is currently plying his trade in the Championship but is expected to make the step into one of Europe's top leagues in the coming months.

Liverpool is reportedly the ideal destination for Mendes and Carvalho

According to a report from the Daily Mail from November, the super-agent failed to get Barcelona and Real Madrid to snap up the talent.

Mendes has a good relationship with Liverpool after he was involved in the deal to bring Diogo Jota to the club.

Fabrizio Romano says Liverpool have scouted Carvalho but that's it

The Italian journalist spoke to the Anfield Watch as part of an exclusive interview on all things Liverpool.

He revealed: "Many clubs are keeping an eye on him.

"Liverpool sent their scouts to watch him so it's about scouting and not negotiating at the moment. So we will see if Liverpool will decide in the coming months to jump into negotiations for him.

"But as of now, it's just a scouting activity as they do for many players. So it's nothing like advanced or a priority for Liverpool.

"I'm sure that he will have loads of opportunities if he's not extending his contract with Fulham. But nothing has been decided yet."

Harvey Elliott is the last player that Liverpool signed from Fulham and fans will be hoping that if the Reds do indeed move forward and sign Carvalho that he turns out to be as exciting.

The Liverpool star is on the comeback trail after suffering a serious injury earlier this season against Leeds United.
