Larissa Firmino shared a heartfelt message to fans after the former number nine played his final game for the club.

Roberto Firmino’s wife released a heartfelt statement following the striker’s departure from Liverpool FC.

Larissa Firmino, who has been married to the Brazilian footballer since 2017, has seen her husband become a club legend over eight remarkable years with the Reds.

In his final appearance, Firmino was selected by Jurgen Klopp for a thrilling 4-4 draw against Southampton. The former number nine marked his last game by scoring the team’s second goal before being substituted in the 57th minute.

Liverpool supporters have always held a special place in their hearts for the Brazilian, who is celebrated as one of the most iconic players to ever don the red shirt. Larissa expressed on Instagram that the sentiment was mutual, sharing that it was painful to say goodbye.

She said: “We’ve reached the end. We are leaving here with hearts full of love. This made the goodbye even more painful, it made us miss everything, even before saying goodbye. But this love also impelled us to do everything over and over again, to do everything the same way, to really give of ourselves, to really love, to give ourselves completely.

“Liverpool taught me that love is worth it Thank you fans, thank you LFC, thank you to each person who was part of this story. We will never forget you.”
