​Juventus increasing price for Liverpool striker Roberto Firmino

Juventus are pushing to sign Roberto Firmino from Liverpool this summer.

The Italian giants are chasing a forward to replace the departed Alvaro Morata.

According to TuttoJuve, the club put in an initial £19.5 million offer for the Brazilian.

However, that was not met with enthusiasm by Liverpool, which has led to Juve increasing their offer.

The Anfield club has no desire to sell Firmino, when they have already lost Sadio Mane this summer.

However, Juve are insistent, and may try to make an offer the club cannot refuse, as Firmino is out of contract in a year's time.
