Fulham have done everything’: Emile Smith Rowe says he’d actually love to play with £16m player Arsenal sold to Fulham…

Emile Smith Rowe has revealed that he would love to play alongside Fábio Carvalho, the £16 million player Arsenal sold to Fulham. The young midfielder, who has struggled for game time at Arsenal, admitted that he has been impressed with how Fulham have handled Carvalho’s development and believes the two could form a strong partnership on the pitch.

Speaking about Carvalho’s move to Fulham, Smith Rowe said, “Fulham have done everything to develop him the right way. He’s such a talented player, and I’d actually love to play with him.” The praise comes as Carvalho continues to shine under Marco Silva, having made an instant impact since his return to Craven Cottage.

Arsenal initially signed Carvalho from Liverpool in a surprise move, but he never got a real chance to establish himself in Mikel Arteta’s squad. Instead, the Gunners opted to sell him to Fulham for £16 million, where he has rediscovered the form that once made him one of the Premier League’s brightest young prospects.

For Smith Rowe, the idea of playing with Carvalho is appealing, especially given that he himself has struggled for minutes at Arsenal. The 23-year-old has found it difficult to break into Arteta’s starting lineup and could be considering a future away from the Emirates.

With Fulham building an exciting squad, a move for Smith Rowe in the future isn’t out of the question. If that were to happen, fans could finally see the duo linking up, bringing creativity and flair to Fulham’s midfield. Whether Arsenal would sanction such a move remains to be seen, but for now, Smith Rowe has made it clear: he admires Carvalho and believes they could be a great duo on the pitch.
