Roberto Firmino could find himself reunited with a former Liverpool team-mate after becoming the latest high-profile player to move to the Saudi Pro League.
The Brazilian’s switch to Saudi Arabia, following the expiration of his Reds contract, was confirmed on Tuesday night. By making the move to the Gulf state, he follows in the footsteps of Cristiano Ronaldo, with Karim Benzema, N'Golo Kante, Ruben Neves, Kalidou Koulibaly, Edouard Mendy and Marcelo Brozovic also heading over this summer.
The 31-year-old has joined Al-Ahli, one of four Saudi Arabian clubs that the Saudi Public Investment Fund, who also own Newcastle United, took control of last month. The fact that they were a second division side last season evidently matters not.
