The Brazilian Globo network revealed that Roberto Firmino made a shocking decision regarding his future.
Al-Ahli had announced the exclusion of Firmino from the team’s local list, so that he will only be able to participate in the 5 elite AFC Champions League matches if the team succeeds in reaching the final.
According to the latest report, Firmino received an offer from Brazilian Fluminense in the past hours, but his decision was to reject it.
So far, the Brazilian international does not plan to leave Al-Ahli even despite being excluded from the local list, and wants to continue until the end of this season and then have a new experience starting next summer.
Perhaps the financial compensation is the main reason for Firmino’s decision to continue, as there is currently no club in the world that can pay his annual salary that exceeds $ 22 million.
At the same time, the 33-year-old decided that when he leaves Al-Ahli, he will not return to Brazil, but his plan is to return again to European stadiums.
If he fails to find a European team, Firmino will likely continue with Al Ahly for another year until the end of his contract in order to obtain his full contract, especially since he never wants to return to Brazil.
