The Brazilian forward’s departure from the Reds this summer after eight years at the club during which time he won every major trophy imaginable was made public in March.
This weekend’s match between Liverpool and Aston Villa will be their season’s last home game.
Firmino expects the emotions to be high as Anfield will have one final opportunity to see the 31-year-old wearing a red shirt.
His likelihood of playing against Unai Emery’s team was hampered by a recent injury, but he insisted that he would participate even if he wasn’t fully well.
“I’ll go [to the boss’ office] if he doesn’t place me in the squad… [Laughing] No. It’s a memorable day for me because it’s my final home game with the supporters, the team, and my teammates.
“I try to concentrate on the game because it’s crucial for us, and I will definitely cry after the game,” she said. Both for me and my family, it will be emotionally taxing.
In their 3-0 victory against Leicester last week, Liverpool’s supporters sang Firmino’s anthem “Si Senor” nonstop.
In 360 games in all competitions, he has 109 goals and 79 assists.
The forward has made a significant contribution to trophy wins, such as the Premier League and Champions League.
Firmino will be severely missed at Anfield, and he may get one more chance to perform on their sacred ground.
The matchup between Liverpool and Villa will be crucial in this season’s race for Europe.
The Villains are looking to return to continental football for the first time since 2010, while the Reds are fifth in the table and aiming for a top four finish.
In six outings against Villa, Firmino has yet to score, so a goal on Saturday would make his Anfield departure even more memorable.
