Liverpool Legends Roberto Firmino and Fabinho Return to Anfield for Former Teammate’s Match, Their First Visit Since Moving to Saudi Arabia in the Summer

Former Liverpool stars Roberto Firmino and Fabinho, who both transferred to Saudi Arabia during the summer, made a highly anticipated return to Anfield on Monday night.

While Firmino’s departure from Liverpool was a deliberate move, as mentioned in his autobiography “Si Senor,” Fabinho’s exit came as a surprise. The team’s midfield is now left with only Wataru Endo, who will soon depart for the Asian Cup, as the sole No. 6 player.

Despite Liverpool’s disappointing season, Fabinho, known for his role as a holding midfielder, would still have received playing time with the current squad.

In the first half of the match, Darwin Nunez had three excellent opportunities but failed to convert them, despite Firmino’s composed presence in front of the goal. However, in the second half, the Uruguayan made up for it by delivering a cool assist.
