FABIO CARVALHO has hinted he will soon be leaving Liverpool after a cryptic Instagram post.

The German then insisted no player had done more to impress him this season.
He told reporters on Friday: "I think there is a maybe a possibility Fabio goes on loan but the thing is this was not Fabio’s best year in his career, clear, but it might have been his most important.
"No player has impressed me more than Fabio, it is the truth.
“This talented boy came here with big dreams and big expectations and it didn’t work out – it was okay in the beginning but it didn't work out in the end.
"But his work ethic will give him a fantastic career because he trained with getting nothing."
Despite his struggles for game time, Carvalho still managed to yield two league goals from his debut season at Anfield, with both coming in August.
Meanwhile, Elanga is in a similar predicament at United.
The Swede has played just 418 minutes of Prem football, chipping in with a single assist, though he remains in high demand.
As many as ten clubs went in with offers for him in the January transfer window, and a loan move looks likely for the summer.
