Liverpool star Roberto Firmino is in the news over the past one week because of the anti-Arsenal clause included in his contract.
However, Football Leaks revealed that the Brazilian has a massive £83m release clause in his contract along with anti-Arsenal clause. But the more interesting clause in his contract is the goal bonuses that he receive for each goal he scores for the club in Premier League and Europa League or Champions League.
Sport Bild’s reported Michael Reis revealed that Roberto Firmino has a very interesting clause about his goal scoring as well. The Brazilian will earn £25,000 bonus for each of the first five goals he scores in the season.
While the bonus increase to £45,000 from goals six to ten. He will earn £65,000 for goals eleven to fifteen. However, if he manages to score anything more than 15, he will earn £85,000 for each goal.

The 25-year old has already scored five goals this season so far in the Premier League and will now earn £45,000 for the next five goals he scores in the league as he cannot increase the tally as Liverpool are not participating in Europe this season.
Despite such hefty bonuses, Firmino has never looked selfish to score a goal for himself as he has always looked to pick a pass for other players who are in the right position and have been clinical at goal when he is at the right place.
