MICAH'S MOMENTS: Unique Roberto Firmino deserved his moment ... (Daily Mail)

MICAH RICHARDS: Firmino is going to leave Liverpool at the end of the season to pursue a new challenge and I'm gutted, really. He has been unbelievable ...

I spent time with England’s Under 21 squad and one of the guys I dealt with was Reiss Nelson. We can look at United another day — I’m not sure I would be able to leave the house had I been on the end of defeat like that — but this, for Klopp and Liverpool, was huge. I did some work with the FA a couple of years ago that involved doing interviews at St George’s Park. John McGinn joined Aston Villa in what was my final year as a footballer. He has been unbelievable for eight years; selfless, never looking for attention but being the glue that held everything together in [Jurgen Klopp](/sport/jurgen_klopp/index.html)’s attack. [Firmino is going to leave Liverpool at the end of the season](/sport/football/article-11816697/Roberto-Firmino-tells-Jurgen-Klopp-hes-LEAVING-Liverpool-summer.html) to pursue a new challenge and I’m gutted, really.

What Roberto Firmino and Liverpool did against Manchester United ... (Liverpool Echo)

Former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher has hailed Roberto Firmino's extraordinary Anfield career - but accepts it is the right time for the Brazilian to ...

"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.

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.

Potential destinations for Roberto Firmino this summer (90min)

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.

Eight Ways of Celebrating Roberto Firmino (The Liverpool Offside)

How can you describe the impact and legacy of a player like Bobby Firmino? Not in a straightforward way, that's for sure.

Moments of perfection with a football, of cleverness, of the type of deft touch that makes you wonder how he even thought to move that way on the ball (let alone how he was able to). He’s our first line of defense, he nicks the ball in midfield and then he goes up the park and scores goals and makes assists. His work rate is central to his identity as a player, but so is the pure joy he brings to the pitch. There’s a reason he’s consistently in the top 10 names on shirts sold, despite the fact that he doesn’t score the most, isn’t a new signing, and isn’t a local lad or the captain of his international side (his didn’t even select him for the last World Cup). The man was made for a party, and it’s good he and his mates know it: Though an eye injury picked up against [Tottenham](https://cartilagefreecaptain.sbnation.com) could have ruled him out, all it did was give us one of his more iconic celebrations (and certainly subdued the PSG traveling support). His most memorable against Watford is probably the no-look flick in 2018 from Mohamed Salah’s assist, and what a goal that was: Firmino peeled away with a shake of his hand as if to say he’d burned it on a run that was just too hot. But whenever I got the ball, I would start to dribble and to nutmeg people and join in the attack. We were right to have the noise levels back up before the ball was out of the net. Firmino arrived having signed for an entirely different Liverpool than the one he will be leaving (as a certified Liverpool legend). It was his goal, of course, that sealed Liverpool’s first ever Club World Cup, but he also scored the goal that carried Liverpool into the final.
