I’m one of the best in the world – Fabinho

Liverpool midfielder Fabinho rates himself among the best in the world.

The 27-year-old last week signed a new contract which will keep him at Anfield until 2026, meaning the club should reap the benefits of him at the peak of his career.

“I think I can still improve. I feel important, I feel I am one of the best players in my position,” he said.

“You always feel you can be better, that you have room to improve. I don’t want to stop; I want to always grow, to try to be better.

“I think if I have good conditions for the rest of my career, I believe I can be the best player in my position.

“That’s what I will try, to do my best for Liverpool. Hopefully it will be my best season for the club.”
