Liverpool striker Roberto Firmino 'agrees' Barcelona Bosman transfer

Liverpool striker Roberto Firmino is ready to move to Barcelona this summer.

Off contract in June, Firmino has agreed a deal to join Barcelona, says the Daily Mail.

Liverpool had been keen to keep the 31 year-old striker, but Firmino announced last month he would be ending hs eight-year stay at Anfield, where he is no longer a regular starter in Jurgen Klopp's team.

He has won the Champions League, the Premier League, the FA Cup, the League Cup and the Club World Cup with the Reds.

A Bosman move to Barca suits the Catalans as they battle with the LaLiga over Financial Fair Play difficulties.

Firmino has suffered hamstring injury and will miss the next three games, though management are hopeful he will be able to play before season's end.
