Hull City set to confirm loan signing of Fabio Carvalho from Liverpool... after the Tigers fended off interest from Premier League and Championship clubs for the Portuguese forward

Hull City are set to confirm the signing of Fabio Carvalho on loan from Liverpool today.

The 21-year old travelled to Hull on Monday ahead of medical tests and, with everything now agreed, is looking forward to starting the next stage of his career.

Liverpool chose the Championship side as they see regular game time as paramount to the Portuguese forward's development.

They curtailed his loan spell with Red Bull Leipzig because he wasn't getting enough minutes and his return signalled a flurry of enquiries from his former club Fulham, plus Wolves, Leeds United, Leicester City and Southampton who made a particularly strong pitch for his services.
