Carvalho is not need to be purchased by Hull City, as Liverpool is still optimistic that he will eventually establish himself as a mainstay in the first team at Anfield.
The less glitzy Championship team defeated loan bids from Leeds United, Southampton, Wolves, and Sheffield United for the attacking midfield player.
Carvalho was sent on loan to RB Leipzig in the Bundesliga last summer, but his time there was cut short after he made just nine league matches and did not make an impression.
In 12 appearances across all categories in Germany, he managed a total of 360 minutes and only two starts.
Liverpool is optimistic that a promotion to the second division will help him turn around his season and provide him with the game time he sorely needs to grow.
He signed a five-year contract to join Anfield from Fulham in the summer of 2022 for an estimated £5 million. Since then, he has only made 21 appearances for Jurgen Klopp’s team, the most of which have come as substitutes.
Leeds is planning many loan acquisitions before the end of January, as reported by Football Insider on January 9, indicating that they are still hopeful of adding players in January after losing out on Carvalho.
Recalled Aston Villa star Lamare Bogarde is being pursued by Southampton, Watford, and Cardiff City for a loan deal that will last the rest of the season, according to sources who spoke with Football Insider on January 5.
