"I think for the club in terms of numbers in that position, they’re healthily stacked when you look at the players when they come back fit," added Carragher. "There are maybe five players actually ahead of him for those three positions at the start of next season. "He wasn’t a wide player, didn’t have the pace, or maybe the mobility to play in midfield. I do think it’s the best situation for all parties really." "He’s been an absolute revelation at this football club, a huge part of what has gone on here with Jurgen Klopp," said Carragher. I would say probably in Premier League terms he didn’t invent that position of the false nine - we obviously know Messi and Pep Guardiola used it for a player who wasn’t an out-and-out striker - but when you think what Jurgen Klopp turned it into, he’s basically a number nine dropping deep, and that whole system was built around him with Mane coming in and Salah, which complimented him running in behind.

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp confirms that Roberto Firmino will be leaving the club when his contract expires at the end of the season.

He said it was a decision with the club. So he's not motivated by other clubs or by financial terms – far away from that." The reception he got today was outstanding. This is what he wants to do. He told us during the whole phase when we negotiated, 'I don't want to talk to anybody else, there's no need to do that'. [Liverpool](/football/liverpool/) manager [Jurgen Klopp](/people/jurgen-klopp/) has confirmed that [Roberto Firmino](/people/roberto-firmino/) will depart the club when his contract expires at the end of the season.

Roberto Firmino's agent has opened up about his decision to leave Liverpool and has laid out what his next move will be in the following months.

“This was not the easiest decision for the boy. “Roberto is a peaceful man and said, ‘I’ve had my time but it’s time to go. For us [it would be] easy but this was not his intention, it was just to find his own way. He said it was a decision with the club. Firmino was on target for Liverpool against Manchester United at the weekend. This is what he wants to do,” Wittmann said.

Roberto Firmino will be leaving Liverpool on a free transfer this summer, but where could the Brazilian end up?

Like Inter, Milan aren't blessed with heaps of cash right now and won't want to spend a huge amount on an alternative forward option, especially if they're going to tie down Rafael Leão for the long haul with a bumper new contract. The 31-year-old may not be at the peak of his powers, but he's still got a couple more years left at the highest level and he's the sort of forward Simeone appreciates. While Firmino differs drastically in profile from the Belgian, he represents a cheap option for the Italian club. However, with Diego Simeone now poised to remain in the Spanish capital, it appears unlikely for Felix to return to the club. What exactly his next adventure will be is unknown, but here are a few possible destinations for Firmino this summer. The 31-year-old will be remembered as a contemporary Liverpool great who played an imperative role in the club's most prosperous period of the modern era.

The never-ending feud between Fenerbahçe and Galatasaray has been reignited as they battle it out for the signature of Liverpool's Brazilian forward...
