In 2015, the Brazilian completed his move from Hoffenheim in a £21.3m deal. Since then he has scored 107 goals and provided 78 assists in 352 appearances.
This season, Firmino has struck nine times and contributed four assists although has struggled with injury. The arrival of Darwin Nunez, Cody Gakpo and Diogo Jota hasn’t helped his course in the team too.
Salah, Firmino and Mané.
