Fabinho has officially put pen to paper on a new deal at Liverpool, which will see him stay at the club until 2026. The music will be music to the ears of Liverpool fans, with the midfielder becoming one of the most important players at Anfield in the last year.
Last season, in particular, the Reds were forced to rely on the Brazilian more than ever as they battled an injury storm. When without a single senior centre-back, it was Fabinho who Jurgen Klopp called upon And he did not disappoint, going onto fulfil the role better than anyone could’ve ever imagined.

What Was Said?
After putting pen to paper on a new deal, Fabinho expressed his delight, telling the official Liverpool website:
“I’m delighted to have signed a new contract with the club. Since the beginning of the conversation, I was really positive about it because it’s what I wanted – staying in this club, keep playing for Liverpool. Now this is official and I’m really happy.
“These last three seasons I’ve been really happy here. I learned a lot with the manager, with all the staff, with the boys as well.
“We achieved things together and for me I think it’s the best place to be, the best place to keep growing, to keep learning from the staff, from the boys. Hopefully we will keep achieving good things.
“The manager and the staff are pushing us for this because they know our capacity, they know our quality.
“Personally, as I say, I want to be the best for the team, I want to be an important piece in this team – not just as a player but as a leader as well. Keep learning from the boys and the staff and be the best I can.
“We know with these players we can go really far in all the competitions. In the last year we didn’t win any trophies, so I think everyone is hungry to win more trophies, win more things, to keep our fans happy. Hopefully we will do this this season.”
