Rivaldo warns Liverpool striker Firmino: Think carefully about Barcelona move

Barcelona great Rivaldo has warned Liverpool striker Roberto Firmino about a move to the Nou Camp.

The Brazil international will leave Anfield at the end of the season and has been linked with Barca.

Rivaldo told Goal: “Following in the footsteps of other Brazilian players, I believe that Firmino would fulfill a dream by playing for Barcelona. However, I think he should first find out what his role in the team would be.

That is why I think he should weigh up his decision, not least because he is leaving Liverpool because he has lost his leading role at the club.

“Xavi always plays with a central striker – Robert Lewandowski – and Firmino’s arrival could suggest a change in strategy, but will most likely mean he would be a bench player who would only play a few minutes.

“That is why I think he should weigh up his decision, not least because he is leaving Liverpool because he has lost his leading role at the club. That doesn’t take away from the beautiful story he has written.”
