Roberto Firmino offered 'lucrative deal' as Liverpool contract near ends

Saudi Arabian side Al-Nassr have set their sights on Roberto Firmino and could be set to tempt the Liverpool star with a lucrative offer.

Firmino's current contract with the Reds runs out at the end of the season with speculation that the 31-year-old forward may call time on a glittering eight-year spell on Merseyside. The summer saw the £64million arrival of Darwin Nunez from Benfica with the 23-year-old seen as the obvious successor to lead Liverpool's line for years to come and Firmino expected to take on a less central role.

But an impressive start to the new season has seen the Brazilian lead Liverpool's scoring chart in the Premier League and help the club through a poor spell without disaster. Such form has led to calls for an extension of his stay at Anfield, and reports earlier this week that Firmino will be offered a new deal imminently were welcomed among Reds fans.
