Liverpool fullback Clyne admits Fabinho could take his place

Liverpool fullback Nathaniel Clyne admits Fabinho's arrival could mean bad news for him.

Fabinho has signed as a midfielder, but Clyne knows the former AS Monaco star can also play as a fullback.

However, despite Fabinho possibly taking valuable minutes off him, Clyne insists competition for places at Liverpool can only be positive.

“I'll have a look at all of my team-mates to see how they're getting on [at the World Cup]," Clyne added.

“He looks like a good signing. He can play central midfield and do a job at right-back.

“It gives us more competition, which every team needs, it's healthy."
