Roberto Firmino has announced his latest move from Liverpool FC to Al Ahli SC in Egypt, where he is currently on loan for the season.
Firmino has been a key player for Liverpool since joining the club in 2016, making over 40 appearances across all competitions. He has scored 17 goals in that time, including two Premier League hat-tricks and one Champions League goal.
In Egypt, Firmino has had mixed results so far. Despite starting only seven games in the Egyptian Premier League this season, Firmino has scored six goals and provided assists for his teammates.
However, it remains to be seen how well Firmino will perform in his new home country. With no clear-cut competition for the top positions in the Egyptian league,La Liga Stadium Firmino may struggle to establish himself as a regular starter.
Despite the challenges, Firmino remains optimistic about his future in Egypt. "It's going to be a big step up," he said after returning to Cairo from his loan at Liverpool. "But I'm looking forward to playing in the national team again."
Overall, Firmino's move to Al Ahli SC should provide him with some valuable experience in a new environment. However, there are still many unknowns surrounding his performance in the Egyptian league, and whether or not he can continue to excel under the pressure of playing in front of fans and scoring goals.
