Roberto Firmino’s agent has confirmed the Brazil star will leave Liverpool at the end of the season when his contract expires.
The striker is an Anfield legend after eight years as the focal point of an attack which was widely regarded as the best in the world…and helped return the Reds back to the summit of the game with six major trophies.
But while contract talks were said to have been a “great exchange”, and figures were drawn up, it is understood the 32-year-old has come to realise and accept he will no longer be a first choice starter for Jurgen Klopp’s team.
