Bayern Munich's Mario Gotze would fit well at Liverpool - Roberto Firmino

Roberto Firmino says Bayern Munich midfielder Mario Gotze would fit in well at Liverpool.

Gotze, 23, has been rumoured to be leaving the Bundesliga champions and has found it difficult to make regular appearances for the club since transferring from Borussia Dortmund, where he played under current Reds boss Jurgen Klopp, in July of 2013.

One of those speculated destinations is Liverpool, where Firmino, who moved to the club from Hoffenheim last summer, has helped the Anfield side to a berth in Wednesday's Europa League final, as well as an unsuccessful appearance in the League Cup decider at Wembley earlier this year.

The Brazilian midfielder told Bild: "Gotze I still know well from my time in Germany, when I played with Hoffenheim against Borussia Dortmund and Bayern.

"He has incredible qualities in attack. He would fit in well with us and will surely help us with his class also."

Liverpool will face two-time defending champions Sevilla in the Europa League final in Basel, Switzerland on Wednesday.

Of the match, the 24-year-old Brazilian said: "We have worked over the entire season so hard and deserve this final.

"But Sevilla is probably the most difficult opponents we could have faced. But we have beaten Dortmund and we won't hide.

"In Basel we have to deliver our maximum again."
