AC Milan have reportedly emerged as contenders to sign Roberto Firmino this summer, with the attacker leaving Anfield at the conclusion of this campaign.

The Brazilian made the switch from Hoffenheim to Merseyside in the summer of 2015 and has cemented himself as a legend in Liverpool, helping Jurgen Klopp's side to Premier League and Champions League glory.

After over 350 games for the Reds, Firmino confirmed that he would be leaving the club for pastures new next term - a decision which has attracted attention from potential suitors.

According to Calciomercato, Serie A side AC Milan are interested in bringing Firmino to San Siro ahead of next season, with Stefano Pioli's men looking to build on reaching the last four of the Champions League this term.

The Rossoneri still have a battle on their hands to finish in the top four of Serie A this campaign - they currently sit three points ahead of fifth-placed Atalanta with two matches left to play.

Firmino could make his final Liverpool appearance on Sunday when the Reds travel to Championship-bound Southampton to round off a league campaign which will lead to them playing Europa League football in the new season.
