AFCON 2025 Favorites: Who Will Rise to the Challenge Against Ivory Coast?

Seven heroes who will not play in the next Premier League season 2023-24.....?

 We are aware that the current football transfer window is rapidly approaching, in which players transfer or loan from one club to another throughout the globe. This article focuses on English Premier League players who are at the peak of their careers with English club football sides but will not be playing next season.

In today's football generation, the majority of players come from academies or transferred from minor teams in their home town. In the English side, players came from all over the world to hone their skills and show themselves in a new environment, new club, new fans, and, most importantly, a new management.

Now we see in this article who is serving his club with greatest abilities and efforts to acquire trophies and to guide youngsters to adjust to the club environment and exchange experience with team mates.

There is no ranking based on statistics in the list below.

Roberto Firmino :-

Roberto Firmino Barbosa de Oliveira also known as "Bobby Firmino" 
Firmino joined Liverpool from Hoffenheim for 29 million euros on June 23, 2015.The gifted Brazilian teenager has played in a variety of positions, including Centre forward, attacking midfielder, second striker, right winger, and left winger.

Firmino scored his first goal for Liverpool in a 4-1 win over Manchester City at City of Manchester Stadium on November 21. Firmino was shifted to center-forward in place of Christian Benteke by new manager Jürgen Klopp.

When Bobby switched positions, he became Liverpool's all-time finest number nine. He came as a child and left as a legend.
Bobby has shown in his 8-year Liverpool career how to end the game with style, unique skills, and no-look goals, and we are all familiar with the Brazilian celebrations.
