Roberto Firmino 'has SIX major offers from European clubs' as Liverpool legend prepares for summer exit | The Sun

ROBERTO FIRMINO already has "six major offers" from top European clubs – just a week after his summer exit from Liverpool was announced.

That's the claim as the Brazil attacker, 31, eyes a lucrative free transfer.

"I don’t want to talk too much about the future, let’s enjoy these last few months that we have of him here.

“I don’t know if the situation can still change, but we joke with him a little."
