ROBERTO FIRMINO AGREES TO JOIN SPANISH GIANTS WHEN HIS LIVERPOOL DEAL ENDS THIS
SUMMER - REPORT

By Ed McCambridge
published 12 April 2023

Firmino has made it clear that he wants to leave Liverpool when his contract
expires at Anfield

Roberto Firmino will reportedly join Real Madrid on a free transfer when his
current terms with Liverpool expire at the end of June. 



Spanish outlet El Nacional write that Los Blancos are keen to take the Brazilian
striker on a Bosman, in a deal which mirrors their 1999 capture of Steve
McManaman, another Reds favourite who rejected fresh terms at Anfield to move to
the Spanish capital. 



The reports will come as a blow to Jürgen Klopp and his coaching staff, who are
said to be keen to try and persuade Firmino to stay for at least one more year.
The 31 year old has lost some of the stamina that made him such an important cog
in Klopp's gegenpressing system of years gone by, but retains the intelligence
and composure to cause top teams problems. 




Liverpool are in a transitional phase right now, with the club currently eighth
in the Premier League table and likely to miss out on Champions League football
next term. Klopp's side have been criticised for their lack of dynamism all
year, with an ageing squad in desperate need of refreshment. Fans are calling on
the German coach to let some of his stalwarts leave in order to make way for the
next generation. 

Latest Videos from fourfourtwo Four Four Two



Having said that, Klopp is thought to be weary of dismantling his squad too
quickly, and he sees Firmino as an important dressing room presence, whose
performance levels could alleviate pressure on incoming players. The Reds boss
already saw key man Sadio Mane leave in 2021 and is loathe to see another member
of the once feared Mane-Firmino-Salah trident go. 



Real Madrid see Firmino as a bargain option who could buy them some time in
their pursuit of their next long-term No.9. Karim Benzema is now 35 and, despite
consistently dazzling performances in the Champions League especially, cannot go
on forever. 

The Spanish giants retain hopes of bringing Kylian Mbappe to the Bernabeu but
appreciate it could be a couple of years before that's doable. Bobby could be
the perfect stopgap recruitment.
