A fresh update on Liverpool forward Roberto Firmino has been provided recently.
Firmino has been a mainstay in Liverpool’s attack for many years now, but has fallen somewhat out of favour of late.
This is in part due to the form of both Luis Diaz and Diogo Jota, but also due to the fact the South American has been struggling with injury.
Firmino missed both of Liverpool’s Champions League semi-final clashes with Villarreal, and was also absent for the Reds’ last three league ties.
Now though, The Athletic’s James Pearce has provided an update on Firmino, simply stating: “Possibly back for the weekend.”
