Mohamed Salah pays tribute to Roberto Firmino as Brazilian leaves Liverpool

Roberto Firmino is set to leave Liverpool at the end of the season. The Brazilian is a bonafide legend of the club. He scored 111 goals and provided 79 assists in 362 games across competitions.

Firmino also won the Premier League and UEFA Champions League with the Merseysiders as he leaves the club with a legendary status. Mohamed Salah has now paid a tribute to Firmino (via the Reds' website):

"I think (it's) his ability to do everything in the game and also to sacrifice himself for the team. He just plays for the team. He doesn't really care about scoring that much. He ujust wants to enjoy his game and just play football and wants the team to win."

Salah added:

"I think he's one of the ones (who has) been loved the most because everybody likes him. He's really calm, always smiling. And as I said before, when you see someone sacrifice himself for the team, you see everybody loves him here."

Salah and Firmino led the Reds' attack throughout most of Jurgen Klopp's time at the club. Firmino's departure marks the end of an era. What's next for the Brazilian remains to be seen.
