Atletico Madrid among four potential destinations for Roberto Firmino after Liverpool exit

CBS Sports journalist Ben Jacobs has named the fourth clubs where Roberto Firmino could go after leaving Liverpool at the end of the season, as quoted in CaughtOffSide.

Despite having the option to stay at Liverpool, the Brazil international froward has decided to part ways in the summer transfer window when he will become a free agent.

Jacobs said: “Liverpool wanted Firmino to extend, but he was intent on taking his time and highly appreciative of the fact Liverpool didn’t put pressure on him for an answer. It wasn’t an easy decision.

“My understanding is Firmino now sees the array of the forwards at the club and decided a new challenge is best because he has a strong appetite to be starting the majority of games.

“Al-Nassr are interested and are also looking at PSG’s Sergio Ramos, which shows the type of stars they want to bring in alongside Ronaldo. Inter are another club to watch. And there have been links with Galatasaray.”

Jacobs added: “I still think Firmino can go and join a big Champions League club. I am told Atletico Madrid is one to watch.”
