With Roberto Firmino set to leave Liverpool at the end of his contract this summer, it’s nearly time for him to choose where to play next.
A story from Goal Brasil today claims that despite the wish of clubs from his home country to sign him, the forward actually wants to stay in Europe.
It’s said that there’s a ‘consensus’ in his staff that he can play in one of the five top leagues, while he believes he can stay at top-level following the exit from Liverpool.
Goal Brasil claims that despite a few approaches, there have been no offers yet, so that should only arrive after the season ends.
Meanwhile, in Spain, Fichajes talks about Real Madrid’s interest in Firmino.
The outlet talks about how the striker leaving Liverpool for free is a great opportunity for the Galacticos, but that doesn’t make the situation so simple.
There are two major issues for his arrival in Madrid. The first is him accepting to be sitting on the bench, and the second is that they’d bet on a player of advanced age, not committing to promising youngsters.
Real Madrid are still set to evaluate the scenario, as Firmino certainly enters the agenda of many other clubs.
