Described by Jürgen Klopp as the ‘engine’ of his team, Roberto Firmino is a Champions League and Premier League-winning striker who does so much more than just score goals.

Blessed with prodigious physical gifts that complement his exceptional footballing talents, the Brazil international leads Liverpool’s line with a fearsome and influential combination of industry and ingenuity.

Alongside Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah, Firmino forms part of one of Europe’s premier attacking trios and scored 43 goals over the course of the 2017-18 and 2018-19 seasons to help the Reds reach back-to-back Champions League finals.

The first of those showpieces, against Real Madrid, ended in heartbreak but, 12 months on, Firmino recovered from a muscle injury in time to start versus Tottenham Hotspur.

Goals by Salah and Divock Origi in Madrid ensured Liverpool exorcised the memories of Kiev and lifted their sixth European Cup.

Firmino was again central to the Reds’ triumphs the following season as Klopp’s side went on to lift the Premier League, FIFA Club World Cup and UEFA Super Cup.

He netted an extra-time winner against Flamengo in the FIFA Club World Cup final in Qatar and ended 2019-20 with a tally of 12 goals and 13 assists from 52 outings.

The No.9, who committed his long-term future to the Reds in April 2018, has become a firm fan favourite at Anfield since joining from Hoffenheim in the summer of 2015 and a new chant in his honour has sound-tracked the club’s journey to success.

“There’s something that the Kop wants you to know, the best in the world is Bobby Firmino…”
