Roberto Firmino is a professional Brazilian football player who plays for the English premier league club Liverpool and the Brazilian national team. His full name is Roberto Firmino Barbosa De Oliveira. However, just like most Brazilian players, the name has been shortened to just Roberto Firmino, which is more since most Brazilian players shorten their names to just one name. Firmino is also known as ‘Bobby’ to his Liverpool teammates and fans. This name was derived from his first name Roberto. 

Firmino is mainly a striker but can also play in the attacking midfield position. He is one of the most outstanding Brazilian players of the current generation alongside PSG star, Neymar. Firmino has also been one of the most instrumental players for Liverpool since he joined the club from 1899 Hoffenheim in 2015.

Firmino is also known for tracking back to help the defense when the team loses the ball. 

Firmino won the UEFA Champions League trophy with Liverpool in the 2018-2019 season and then added the UEFA Super Cup and FIFA Club World Cup trophies to it the following season. Firmino scored the winning goal in the final match of the FIFA Club World Cup to help Liverpool clinch the trophy. He then won the 2019-2020 English premier league title with Liverpool.

Roberto Firmino’s footballing talent has earned him a lot of money in the sport because he came from poverty in his native Brazil.
