Roberto Firmino is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a forward or attacking midfielder for the Premier League club Liverpool and the Brazil national team.

Firmino began his career with CRB before switching to Figueirense’s youth program in 2008 at the age of 17. Firmino made his first-team debut, coming on as a halftime substitute in a 2-1 Série B home loss to Ponte Preta.

On May 8, 2010, Firmino scored his first goal, the game-winning one in a victory over So Caetano. In 36 games during the season, he contributed with eight goals as Figueirense made its two-year comeback to Série A.

He spent four and a half seasons at 1899 Hoffenheim after beginning his career with Figueirense in 2009. He won the league’s Breakthrough Player honours for the 2013–14 Bundesliga season after scoring 16 goals in 33 games.

He joined Liverpool in July 2015, where he quickly gained praise for his inventiveness, goal-scoring ability, and work ethic. Manager Jürgen Klopp described Firmino as the “engine” driving the team’s counter-pressing strategy.

Firmino married Larissa Pereira in his hometown in June 2017. They have three daughters. In November 2022 the couple announced they were expecting a fourth child. Firmino’s initial name, Roberto, has been abbreviated to “Bobby” by Liverpool supporters and players.

Firmino was detained for drunk driving in December 2016. When sentenced at Liverpool Magistrates’ Court in February 2017, he received a £20,000 fine and a one-year driving license suspension. Firmino is a native of Portugal and also speaks English and German.
