Barcelona offer huge contract to outgoing Liverpool star Roberto Firmino
Liverpool star Roberto Firmino stands offered a ‘huge’ contract by Barcelona, according to reports from Football Insider via ECHO.
The Brazilian forward has been a crucial part of the Liverpool squad for eight years, but he has decided to leave the club at the end of the season after informing manager Jurgen Klopp of his decision not to extend his contract.
Barca are among the club showing interest in Bobby, as he announced not so long ago his desire to move on from Merseyside to seek a new challenge at the end of this season.
Liverpool has a history of attracting and developing top talent, and they have a proven track record of rebuilding their team when key players leave. The club’s fans will be hoping that this trend continues and that the club moulds Cody Gakpo to fill Firmino’s shoes.
Could Bobby become a Culer soon?
In the meantime, Liverpool will have to prepare for life without Firmino. The Brazilian forward has been a crucial part of the team’s success in recent years, and his departure will be a big loss for the club.
A “huge contract’ is something nobody would want to reject, and given he still has a solid few years of football at the top level left in him, it is only right that he moves to Barca to earn the big bucks towards the end of his career. Highly doubt that though, as Firmino doesn’t seem like a person who is motivated by money.
Liverpool will be hoping that they can end the season on a high note, and they can secure a top-four finish in the Premier League. The club has a number of talented players in their squad, and they will be looking to step up in the absence of Firmino.
Ultimately, Liverpool will have to move on from Firmino’s departure and look to the future. As far as the present scenario stands, Bobby will not be a part of the matchday squad for the next three league games due to an injury.
