The sheikhs plan to open their wallets even wider and bring more superstars to the Saudi Arabian league, which has become a haven for players on the decline. 

It has been a week since the announcement of the Al Nassr club that made official the fifth team in the professional career of the Portuguese Cristiano Ronaldo, and even before more than 25 thousand people was recently presented CR7 promising him an epochal team in the Saudi Arabian Professional League that in recent days has increased the number of followers and views on their social networks, as a result of the huge recruitment they made.

To continue in this line of signings, the team from the city of Riyadh has proposed that at least a couple more transfers will be made so that Ronaldo can feel comfortable on the pitch and win as many titles in the three years he will be there. It is then that Roberto Firmino, currently playing for Liverpool, is one of the desires of the Al Nassr team, who would be signing the Brazilian either in this transfer window or in the summer.

Bobby's situation with the Reds is complicated, knowing that this year is when his contract expires, the same one that German coach Jürgen Klopp is looking to renew once again, as in 2018 was when Firmino was extended for a few more years at Anfield. The Brazilian arrived on Merseyside in 2015 after paying Hoffenheim €41m in one of the German club's highest-ever signings in German Bundesliga history.

Klopp has revealed that he hopes Bobby can sign a renewal that will ensure he stays at least another year at Liverpool, but he also knows that will depend on him and the Reds board, who are hoping the Brazilian can recover as soon as possible from a muscle discomfort that has kept him off the pitch since mid-December and which has yet to be given an official return date by the club's doctors.

In addition to Firmino, Al Nassr are also planning to bring in other superstars who are looking to retire, such as Spain's Sergio Ramos, who currently plays for Paris Saint-Germain and boasts a friendship with Ronaldo. The Spaniard could be joined by FC Barcelona midfielder Sergio Busquets and even France's N'Golo Kanté, who could leave Stanford Bridge after being completely erased by Graham Potter.
