If Firmino goes could this 22-goal striker replace him? – would be the perfect replacement for Liverpool

Roberto Firmino

Liverpool have been very active this summer in the transfer window and they could be about to enter it once again.

Reports linking Roberto Firmino with a move away are only intensifying and a replacement may need to be found.

Especially considering Diogo Jota is out for a while with Jurgen Klopp claiming his injury will “take a while unfortunately.”

If Firmino goes a ready-made replacement will have to be targeted – and it could Rennes’ Martin Terrier.

Latest reports on Firmino and Terrier

According to Corriere dello Sport, Liverpool have agreed to sell Roberto Firmino to Juventus, a player Jürgen Klopp wants to keep at Anfield.

Italian media source Corriere dello Sport claim that a fee of £19m has been agreed between the Reds and Juventus, with Firmino now closing in on a move to Turin.

Firmino leaving is rather unlikely unless a bigger fee comes in for the Brazilian, however have less to bargain with given his contracts runs out next summer.

According to French outfit L’Equipe, Liverpool see the Frenchman as an option to succeed Firmino next summer.

He was the third-highest goalscorer in Ligue 1 last season behind only Kylian Mbappe and Wissem Ben Yedder.

Terrier can play as either a left-winger or as a centre-forward which would give Liverpool depth and versatility as well as a back-up for Luis Diaz on the left wing.
