Former Premier League Striker Claims 'I'd Be Perfect Fit for Liverpool, I Play Like Firmino'

Former Liverpool forward Robbie Keane believes he would have had what it takes to play in Jurgen Klopp’s current front three, comparing his style of play to Roberto Firmino.

The former Republic of Ireland international established a reputation as one of the Premier League’s most prolific strikers during his time with Tottenham, but had limited success after moving to Liverpool for £19m in 2008.

Keane scored just seven goals in 28 appearances during his short spell on Merseyside, but has insisted that he would be ‘perfect’ for the current Liverpool side.
