Liverpool forward Roberto Firmino is attracting interest from Juventus, AC Milan and Inter Milan
According to Football Italia (h/t Liverpool Echo), Liverpool forward Roberto Firmino could be on his way to Italy with all top clubs of Serie A vying for his signature.
Firmino recently confirmed to Jurgen Klopp and his Liverpool teammates that he would leave the club at the end of the season.
A brilliant servant to the club who embodies the style that Klopp wants to implement with his side while being the main figurehead in the initial days of the Klopp era.
All eras do come to an end and sadly, Firmino’s story at Anfield ends post the current season and would leave us with innumerable good memories associated with the Brazilian. Now, it is claimed that the Brazilian’s next destination could be Italy with Juventus, AC Milan and Inter Milan all interested in acquiring the services of the player.
Firmino has established himself as one of the most lethal forwards in the Premier League and allowed players like Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane to excel fully. Therefore, there would be no shortage of suitors for the Brazilian who still has a lot to give to the game and would be a shrewd addition to any team.
Firmino’s departure could lead to a domino effect, which could see us go into the market for a striker, after having already added Darwin Nunez and Cody Gakpo to our ranks.
Although Klopp has deployed both Nunez and Gakpo in the middle yet it is common knowledge that both prefer playing out from the left, where they are performing at their best.
The team lacks a proper no.9 and along with midfield, should be the area where Klopp would be looking to add further quality in the summer transfer window. The season is not yet over for Liverpool with the top four firmly in sight and a run of good form can easily shift the tide in our favour.

With four consecutive clean sheets, we would be facing one of our toughest games of the season when the in-form Manchester United visit Anfield. It would be a tough encounter as was seen in our away game but there is every chance that we could get the maximum points out of the game and boost our chances of a top-four finish.
