Klopp says £180k-a-week Liverpool ace could play Aston Villa

That’s what Liverpool coach Jurgen Klopp said the club’s official website that Roberto Firmino could return to action at Villa Park against Aston Villa.

Klopp’s Liverpool take on Villa at Villa Park in the Premier League on Tuesday night.

Brazil international striker Firmino has been training since last week after recovering from a foot injury sustained against Manchester City in April.

Liverpool manager Klopp has said the £180,000-a-week star (SalarySport) could be back in action against Villa.

Jurgen Klopp on Roberto Firmino for Liverpool vs Aston Villa

Klopp said to Liverpool official site on Monday: “Bobby has now trained before the last game [for] two days. We don’t train much, so he always has to do more, he still does.

“So, [a] decision for tomorrow. He’s getting closer and closer and closer. Hopefully he can be there.”

Late introduction

Liverpool manager Klopp should bring Firmino late into the game against Villa, in our opinion.

There’s no point in putting the Brazilian star in action as Liverpool have other excellent attacking players.

Firmino has struggled with injuries this season and hasn’t played much but that hasn’t affected Liverpool at all.

That’s what the 30-year-old did only nine launches in the Premier League and just two in the Champions League for the Merseyside team this season.

Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane, Luis Diaz and Diogo Jota are all playing well and we believe Liverpool have more than enough firepower to defeat Villa at Villa Park.
