FC Barcelona has completed the arrival of Roberto Firmino!

“Who would be on my priority list? Financial fair play is something you need to consider, but there is definitely a need for a striker behind Lewandowski. I really like Goncalo Ramos. He is excellent with the Portuguese national team and also at Benfica. I think he could be a very interesting player at Barca. Like Roberto Firmino by the way”. Here is what Patrick Kluivert, former Barça player between 1998 and 2004, said recently. Words that seem to have had a certain effect in the Catalan offices. And for good reason. Still as determined to repatriate Lionel Messi this summer, the Culers are said to be on the verge of completing a surprise arrival.

In this perspective, the DailyMail indicates, this Saturday, that Liverpool striker Roberto Firmino, out of contract next summer, has already agreed to join the current La Liga leader. In lack of playing time on the side of the Reds, moreover since the arrivals of Diogo Jota, Cody Gakpo and Darwin Nunez, the Brazilian international (55 caps, 17 goals) would thus bring real competition to Robert Lewandowski for the position of number 9.

Roberto Firmino will leave Liverpool at the end of the season

Barça have doubled their Madrid rival!

Author of 11 goals and 5 assists in 33 matches in all competitions since the start of the season, Roberto Firmino will above all remain a member of the magic trio with Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mané during the conquest of the title of champion of England in 2020. If I was surprised at his willingness to leave? A little, but I totally respect it. He is a very special player, I loved the reception he received against Manchester United. He wants to close this wonderful story with a positive ending. His song will be there for a long time, confided Jürgen Klopp last March, aware of his protege’s departure wishes.

Announced on the side of Inter Milan but especially Real Madrid to come and support Karim Benzema, Firmino should therefore, unless the situation turns around, engage freely with the Barcelona rival. Currently injured, the former TSG Hoffenheim striker, with 109 goals in 360 matches in the Reds jersey, still does not know when he will be able to turn back the lawns. One thing is certain, if his coach really hopes to see him again by the end of the season, his return will certainly be an opportunity for him to say goodbye to Anfield.
