Roberto Firmino: Why I've joined Liverpool...

Roberto Firmino says he's joining Liverpool to win trophies.

The 23-year-old Hoffenheim attacking midfielder will fly to Merseyside to undergo a medical following the Copa America after agreeing a five-year contract.

Firmino, who scored 47 goals in 151 appearances for Hoffenheim, is currently preparing for Saturday's quarter-final with Paraguay.

“It is time to leave Hoffenheim for a bigger club to fight for titles, but for now I am concentrated on the Copa," Firmino said.
