Juventus make an official approach for Liverpool’s Roberto Firminho with a €23 million bid after losing out on Alvaro Morata: Reports
Juventus
Juventus have made Liverpool’s Roberto Firmnho a priority signing as per Tuttosport. The Old Lady signed Dusan Vlahovic from Florentina last summer for a huge fee of €82 million last January but are still looking to add some more attacking Arsenal to their ranks.
The club decided to let go of Paulo Dybala on a free transfer while also deciding against signing Atletico Madrid’s Alvaro Morata on a free transfer. They have already signed Argentine winger Angel de Maria o free and are now eyeing a move for the 30-year-old versatile forward.
Liverpool could consider cashing in on Firminho after Juventus’ bid
As per reports in England, Liverpool could consider cashing in on their Brazilian striker who has just one year left on his contract. Liverpool does not intend on extending Firmhinho’s contract after having signed Darwin Nunez for a record €100 million a few weeks back.
This means that Juventus could sign the 30-year-old on a cut-price deal as no other club seems to be making an approach for the striker as of now. Liverpool valued the player at around £25 – £30 million while Juventus are willing to offer only £20 million for the player.
The Turin side is aware of the competition they face with AC Milan, Inter Milan and AS Roma all strengthening their squads and need the best talent if they aim to become Kings of Italy again.
Massimilano Allegri is a keen admirer of Robert Firminho. He is aware of the Brazilain’s style of play and could use him as a centre-forward or CAM or play him as a second striker to Dusan Vlahovic as well.
Since joining Liverpool, Robert Firminho has been one of the most influential players for the club in their recent success. Although his return of 98 goals and 74 assists in 327 games may seem sub-par, Roberto Firminho is one of the most versatile and dynamic forwards in Europe.
