Liverpool midfielder Fabinho is set to return to pre-season training at the club, with his proposed transfer to Saudi Arabia reportedly in jeopardy of collapsing.
The 29-year-old was set to join Al Ittihad in a £40million deal, but The Athletic’s David Ornstein claims there is a delay in the process.
It is claimed that delay has nothing to do with the Brazilian midfielder’s two French bulldogs, as was widely reported yesterday.
But the deal has stalled, and it is said both clubs are still in negotiations to get a deal done with Al Ittihad still keen to sign the player.
As it stands though, Fabinho is back in Liverpool and set to return to training at the club’s AXA Training Centre on Wednesday, unless there’s a breakthrough in talks
