Roberto Firmino is anticipated to depart from Al-Ahli this summer. Although he still has a year remaining on his contract with Al-Ahli, he is actively pursuing a return to Brazil. Flamengo is reportedly one of the clubs interested in facilitating his return. This was reported by journalist Ben Jacobs. Firmino, who has participated in 65 matches for Al-Ahli, scoring 21 goals and contributing 17 assists, initially made the move to Saudi Arabia in July 2023 following his departure from Liverpool. His potential return to Brazil would signify a homecoming for the player who began his career at Figueirense Futebol Clube and Tombense before transferring to TSG Hoffenheim in Germany in January 2011.
