Roberto Firmino releases footage of his farewell speech to his Liverpool team-mates, declaring his eight years at Anfield the 'honour of my life' and leaving his family close to tears as he ponders his next move

Roberto Firmino has labelled his eight years at Liverpool as the 'honour of my life' after calling time on his Anfield career.

Firmino arrived on Merseyside as a relatively unknown quantity when he joined from Hoffenheim in 2015, but went on to play a starring role for the club to become a fans' favourite.

The Brazilian forward scored 111 goals in 362 appearances for the club, winning every major trophy available, and was given a huge reception by supporters after his final game at Anfield last month.

Firmino was also extremely popular in the dressing room, and he has now released a video of his farewell speech to his team-mates, which left his wife Larissa close to tears.
