Fábio Carvalho will miss the rest of the season after suffering an anterior cruciate ligament injury. The Brentford player has already met with a specialist and will be undergoing surgery.
Carvalho is known for his impact in games including the match against Grimsby Town where Brentford dominated with a 5-0 win.
The club confirmed this injury on their official X handle, saying:

We will all be with you every step of the way, Fábio
Carvalho joined Brentford from Liverpool in 2024. Since then, he has made 33 appearances for the Bees in all competitions.
Softfootball reported his remarkable performance in the Premier League match against Chelsea, where he scored a last-minute equaliser to secure a 2–2 draw. The club pledged full support to him during this challenging period.
The recovery process after an ACL surgery sometimes takes a long period of time and Brentford even confirmed that Carvalho’s season is now over.
Though the news comes with a challenge for the player and the team, with due rehabilitation, Carvalho will return stronger and ready for more competitive matches.
