Fábio Carvalho - knee
Brentford forward Fabio Carvalho (23) has been ruled out for the remainder of the season after suffering a serious anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury during a training session last week. Brentford confirmed that Carvalho will undergo surgery and has already begun the initial phase of his rehabilitation.
Head coach Keith Andrews described feeling “devastation” for the midfielder, praising Carvalho’s character and professionalism. Andrews admitted he had hoped to give the former Liverpool man more opportunities this season, but the long-term injury has halted those plans. (Source: John Harland, The Borough of Hounslow Herald)
