Real Madrid like the look of Firmino

As clubs prepare themselves for the summer transfer window, Real Madrid are getting ready to splash out for Dortmund's Jude Bellingham, with the transfer looking like it'll cost them a cool 100 million euros. But he's not the only big name the 'Merengues' after looking for this summer.

According to journalist and transfer window specialist Fabrizio Romano, Roberto Firmino is on Madrid's list of priority targets to compete with Karim Benzema up front next season. Currently no deal has been struck, but his status as a free agent is a big advantage for the club.

The 31-year-old forward was recruited by Liverpool from Hoffenheim in 2016 and quickly became a crucial member of the team, scoring 110 goals in 361 matches. Firmino was one of four players to announce he would be leaving the club this summer alongside James Milner, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Naby Keita.
