His loan to Leipzig was aimed at getting the young winger playing time in a top league, but the German outfit have limited his time on the pitch. The Italian journalist stated that Liverpool were &#8220;not happy&#8221; with the 21-year-old&#8217;s loan, which limits him mainly to appearances as a substitute.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2023\/12\/11\/liverpool-maximilian-beier-hoffenheim-transfer-interest\/\" target=\"_self\">Liverpool \u2018Inquired About\u2019 Attacking \u2018Prodigy\u2019 From Bundesliga; He Will Leave In The Summer<\/a><\/p>\n<p>A January return for Carvalho looks possible, with Romano reporting that the &#8220;decision on next steps to be made soon.&#8221; The Portuguese youngster scored twice in 13 Premier League matches last season.
