The Brazil forward narrowly edged out Mohamed Salah to claim the first accolade of 2018 after scoring three goals in six appearances.
It’s the second time in his Reds career Firmino has won the award, having also scooped it for his performances in January 2016.
Upon being presented with the trophy at Melwood, he told Liverpoolfc.com: “I am very happy to receive this prize for being the Player of the Month and I hope to win more awards during this season. I am very happy for the fans voting for me.”
