Roberto Firmino says he and Philippe Coutinho are aiming to replicate Ronaldinho or Ronaldo’s impact on the Brazil national team.
The 23-year-old most recently played a key role in the squad’s run to the quarter-finals of the Copa América alongside Coutinho. He said: “It would be hard for anyone to be as good as Ronaldinho or Ronaldo but me and Philippe are going to do our best to get close to them and be the best players we can be for Brazil. It was ugly what happened in the World Cup semi-final against Germany but there are new players in Brazil to turn things around and who can show that Brazil still has lots of talent to be successful.”
