Brazilian star Fabinho has revealed in an in-depth interview the deep thinking behind his farewell to Premier League rivals Liverpool in the summer of 2023 for a move to Saudi Arabia's Jeddah United.
Fabinho said bluntly, "It is not easy to say goodbye to Liverpool, my years there have been pleasant and with three years left on my contract, there is no logical reason to leave in a hurry." He added that while his experience at Liverpool has been satisfactory, the offer from Jeddah United presents him with unprecedented opportunities.
Speaking about the decision, Fabinho appeared confident: "I couldn't be happier with my choice. Not only is Jeddah beautiful and pleasant to live in, but my family has also found a sense of belonging here. I am doing my best to help Jeddah United achieve another success."
Reflecting on his time at Liverpool, Fabinho mentioned former teammate Chamberlain's advice: "In his last year at Liverpool, Chamberlain had shared with me how difficult it was for English players to leave the Premier League. I can relate to that. It is true that when you first step out of the country to play soccer, you will face a lot of discomfort." However, as a Brazilian who embarked on the journey of playing soccer in a foreign country as early as 18 years old, Fabinho believes he has more experience and advantages in this regard.
This interview reveals that despite Fabinho's deep love for Liverpool, he has bravely chosen a new chapter in his life. At Jeddah United, he has not only expanded his career, but also brought happiness to his family. We look forward to Fabinho continuing to shine in this new beginning and providing more passionate matches for the fans.
