The 26-year-old will threaten the Galacticos in several areas on the pitch. He is clinical in front goal, able to beat defenders with his amazing movement and dribbling skills aswell as brilliant at setting up his teammates to score at the vital moments. He also drops deep into the midfield to contribute to team play and attack building.
Firmino is incredible without the ball too. He works hard to regain lost balls and contributes in defensive roles whenever the need arrives.
His overall team play and ability to score incredible goals at important moments makes him one player Los Blancos must be wary of. The striker has recorded 10 goals and 7 assists to his name in the premier European tournament this term.
