Bayern Munich is keeping an eye on the Liverpool star Roberto Firmino as they consider their options for replacing Eric Maxim Chuopo-Moting in the next January transfer window
Liverpool News: If Eric Maxim Chuopo-Moting leaves Bayern Munich in January, as reported by Media Foot, the club may look to sign a new striker. With the 31-year-old star’s contract expiring in six months, Roberto Firmino is one of their top targets to replace the Cameroonian.
The biggest teams on the continent are showing interest in Roberto Firmino. Barcelona isn’t the only club interested in signing the 31-year-old great. Bayern Munich is reportedly in the running, too. The Brazilian’s summer contract expiration reflects the lingering doubts about his career path.
Will Roberto Firmino leave Liverpool for Bayern Munich or Barcelona?
That’s a solid sum, and Jurgen Klopp is still interested in keeping Firmino around for that reason. The Brazilian has been offered a new contract by Liverpool. But nothing has been finalized as of yet. The 31-year-old star is said to desire to remain where he is. But he may consider other opportunities if compelling offers come his way.

Next summer, he will be available for free. Barcelona is interested in signing him, but Bayern Munich may make an offer in January. The Bavarians just brought in Sadio Mane, a former teammate of Firmino’s. They may try to reunite the two this month.

If Eric Maxim Chuopo-Moting leaves Bayern Munich, the club may go to the transfer market in January for a new striker. The veteran forward’s name keeps coming up in connection with a transfer to Manchester United. They want to replace Cristiano Ronaldo with another star player.
What’s next?
If he leaves, Bayern hopes to steal Firmono away from Liverpool. The Brazilian may weigh all of his alternatives and even lobby Liverpool to allow him to join the Bavarians if the perfect deal comes around. But now things appear pretty bleak since the German champs aren’t desperate enough to recruit a new striker. In any other case, they won’t take such measures until necessary.
There are good prospects for a new deal between Firmino and Liverpool at this time. Things might change if the 31-year-old star decides he wants a fresh challenge to satisfy other needs in his budding career.
When Firmino eventually leaves Liverpool, he will be remembered as one of the club’s all-time greats. It’s expected that his position with the Reds would decrease as his contract expired. Other players like Darwin Nunez and Cody Gakpo were brought in this summer and this month, respectively.
Even though Jurgen Klopp claimed in November that contract negotiations were under process, there has been no formal announcement to that effect.
