Liverpool have omitted Fabinho out of their tour squad for Germany.
Liverpool have announced that 32 players are going to Germany for a 10-day training camp.
But Brazil midfielder Fabinho, 29, is not on the list.
Sky Sports reports that Fabinho has been given permission to complete his move to Al-Ittihad - who have made a bid of £40m.
Fabinho is expected to undergo his medical at the Saudi club shortly.
