Liverpool star’s agents now keen to get him out of Anfield in repeat of Hoffenheim exit – Calciomercato

Bobby Firmino’s agents are reportedly keen to arrange a deal to get the Liverpool striker out of the Anfield-based outfit in a similar manner to that which preceded the forward’s move away from Hoffenheim.

This claim comes courtesy of Calciomercato (via Sport Witness) amid alleged interest from Serie A giants Juventus, though the Brazilian’s entourage would be prepared to accept interest from other European giants.

Jurgen Klopp and his coaching staff are, however, thought to want the 30-year-old to remain at L4, as it’s believed the former Bundesliga star very much still has a role to play ahead of the 2022/23 campaign.

It’s difficult to imagine the club wanting to roll the dice on another new centre-forward, without a full pre-season to adjust, alongside fellow new boy Darwin Nunez.
