Liverpool backed to sign 'phenomenal' Roberto Firmino replacement


Former England goalkeeper Paul Robinson believes Paulo Dybala would be a "phenomenal" replacement for Roberto Firmino at Liverpool. Dybala has been linked with a host of Premier League clubs, with his contract at Juventus set to expire in the summer of 2022. Spanish outlet El Gol Digital last week claimed Liverpool would be interested in Dybala this summer. And Robinson says the 27-year-old can play across the frontline but would be best replacing Firmino in a central role. "Dybala is a world-class player, what a signing he would be," Robinson told Football Insider. “He would be a massive addition to any squad. “It is very hard to find players who can join or disrupt Liverpool’s front three. They have misfired this year but [Diogo] Jota has come in and has forced Jurgen Klopp’s hand into playing all four of them at times. “The front three are not invincible, they have been nowhere near the level of performance of previous years so someone like Dybala coming in would add another dimension. Liverpool should go for him because he is capable of playing across the front line and he would be a great option as a false nine. He would be phenomenal in that Firmino role.” Firmino has scored just six goals in all competitions for Liverpool so far this season.
