'The latest contract dilemma surrounds Roberto Firmino, who inadvertently finds himself as a test case for the current state of Fenway Sports Group’s 'Moneyball' strategy.'
Liverpool owners FSG want to offer Firmino much-reduced terms on a contract extension after crunching the numbers, with Klopp keen for him to remain at the club.‘The latest contract dilemma surrounds Roberto Firmino, who inadvertently finds himself as a test case for the current state of Fenway Sports Group’s “Moneyball” strategy, given how many of its advocates have either left or are leaving Liverpool.
But former England goalkeeper Paul Robinson believes the ball is firmly in Firmino’s court and he wouldn’t blame the 31-year-old for chasing a bigger deal at his age.: “At this point in his contract, he is in control of his own destiny. “He looks happy there and he may want to finish his career there. But, he might want to have one last big move.
“Klopp would obviously like to keep him. Is he at the level he was three years ago? No. He is not essential for Liverpool anymore as much as he is still a brilliant player. He is no longer irreplaceable whereas he was a few seasons ago.
