Liverpool midfielder Fabinho has been left out of the club’s pre-season trip to Germany as he closes in on an exit. A shortlist of replacement options has emerged.
In the transfer market, things can often change quickly — but that has seemed especially true in the case of Saudi Arabian interest in Liverpool duo Jordan Henderson and Fabinho.
The former has been named in the Liverpool traveling party to Germany for the next phase of pre-season training, but the latter is the subject of a $52m (£40m/€47m) offer from Al Ittihad, who are now managed by Nuno Espírito Santo, and will be staying behind.
