Roberto Firmino Liverpool contract

 Roberto Firmino Liverpool contract


Roberto Firmino's Liverpool manager, Jurgen Klopp, delivers an update on his contract situation while negotiations regarding Brazil's snub are underway. Firmino's current deal expires in the summer.


The status of negotiations for Roberto Firmino's new Liverpool contract has been verified by Jurgen Klopp.


The Brazilian forward is a free agent in the summer and can negotiate a pre-contract deal with clubs outside of England in January, when his current contract's last six months are up.


The 2015 summer signing Firmino is now in his eighth season on Merseyside and Klopp claims negotiations are taking place behind the scenes with the South American's representation. Firmino is one of just a few players to have played at Anfield before Klopp.


When questioned about the status of Firmino's contract, Klopp responded, "Normal conversations [are] going as well, so we will see what happens there."

Liverpool 3 - 1 Southampton

Liverpool 3 - 1 Southampton

Liverpool finished the World Cup with a win at Anfield to mark the beginning of Nathan Jones' Southampton tenure with a defeat.


Before the Saints' unmarked Che Adams equalised for the Reds, Roberto Firmino put the disappointment of not making the Brazil squad for Qatar behind him by scoring the opening goal for the Reds.



Darwin Nunez of Uruguay scored twice in the game's first half to give Liverpool the lead.


Nunez made it 2-1 when he prodded past Gavin Bazunu from close range before tapping in the third goal after Andy Robertson's pass. Nunez is one of seven Reds players now headed to the World Cup.


Without the 20-year-old Bazunu's two superb saves, both of which came from close range and denied Mohamed Salah and Firmino, Liverpool would have won by a larger margin.


Alisson, the goalkeeper for the Reds, also made a strong save to save Adams' header in the 77th minute.

LIVERPOOL FOR SALE

 In response to rumours that Liverpool is up for sale, the club's owners state that they "would consider new shareholders."


The Fenway Sports Group (FSG), which acquired Liverpool in 2010, is reportedly "inviting proposals," according to The Athletic.



"Remains entirely committed to the success of Liverpool, both on and off the field," according to FSG.


Liverpool, which finished second in the Premier League last year, is currently sixth.


They have advanced to the round of 16, where they will play Real Madrid in a rematch of the championship game from the previous year.


In a statement, FSG said: "There have been a number of recent ownership changes at Premier League teams, as well as rumours of ownership changes, and unavoidably, we are frequently questioned about Fenway Sports Group's ownership of Liverpool.


"Third parties have regularly expressed interest in joining FSG as shareholders in Liverpool.


As previously stated by FSG, if it was in the best interests of Liverpool as a club, we would consider new shareholders under the proper terms and conditions.


In a £300 million deal, FSG acquired Liverpool from New England Sports Ventures.


LeBron James, a professional basketball player, purchased a 2% share in Liverpool for £4.7 million in 2011, making him a part owner since then.


Since then, he has grown to be a minor partner in FSG, the company that also owns baseball team Boston Red Sox.


A private investment company called RedBird Capital Partners purchased a stake in FSG in March for around $735 million (£533 million).


After Liverpool pulled out of a proposed European Super League in April 2021, the club's major owner John W Henry issued an apology to the supporters.


This summer, Liverpool spent £64 million on striker Darwin Nunez, £5 million on attacking midfielder Fabio Carvalho, and £4.2 million on defender Calvin Ramsay.


Manager Jurgen Klopp remarked in August, "There are times when I would be willing to take a little bit more of a risk, but I don't determine that and that's great.
