Southampton’s defeat on September 23, 2023 against Middlesbrough was their fourth consecutive loss, but since then, they have remained undefeated for 18 matches, putting pressure on second-placed Ipswich Town in the league standings.
In efforts to strengthen their squad, Southampton has now joined Leicester in pursuing a loan deal for Liverpool’s Fabio Carvalho for the remainder of the 2023-24 season, as both clubs aim to secure the talented 21-year-old Portuguese midfielder. Carvalho previously had a successful season with Fulham, followed by a transfer to Liverpool and a subsequent loan to RB Leipzig in the Bundesliga, where he saw limited game-time.
With Leicester potentially facing competition for Carvalho’s signature due to their existing strong squad, Southampton is in the market for an attacking player, making them a strong contender in the race for Carvalho’s services. The addition of Carvalho could provide a significant boost to Southampton’s lineup and contribute to their push for promotion.
