Thanks for everything Firmino, Klopp's statement that puts the Brazilian out of Liverpool

The 31-year-old Brazilian's contract with Liverpool expires on 30 June and although the Reds have already started to work on his renewal, his continuity cannot be taken for granted. In fact, it seems that everything will depend on the role that Jürgen Klopp can guarantee him, who last season relegated him to the bench on numerous occasions (only 10 starts in the Premier League), but who this season has once again given him a greater role (he has already made 11 starts).

Forged at Figueirense in his home country, Firmino spent five seasons at TSG Hoffenheim before landing at Anfield Road, where he has 348 official appearances to his name (107 goals and 78 assists). He has also been capped 55 times by Brazil (17 goals).
