They make a move to Naples the most likely for Firmino this summer at odds of 7/4.
Firmino joined Liverpool from Hoffenheim back in 2015 for a reported fee of around £30million.
In his time on Merseyside, the Brazilian has won the Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup and Uefa Super Cup.
Famed for his link-up play, the 31-year-old has still chipped in with 108 goals in 356 Liverpool appearances.
The forward formed a formidable trio for multiple years with Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane that helped transform Liverpool from also-rans to genuine contenders.
The star’s agent Roger Wittmann revealed last month that he’d depart, saying: “I can confirm that [he will leave Liverpool].

“It’s a nice way to leave after eight incredible years.”
Now, Napoli are frontrunners to snap up the soon-to-be free agent at 7/4 with Ladbrokes.
They’re just one of several European giants understood to be keen on landing him.
Barcelona come next at 5/1, just ahead of Bayern Munich at 11/2 – where ex-team-mate Mane resides.
Italian rivals AC Milan (7/1) and Inter (8/1) are next, with Newcastle and Juventus just behind at 10/1 and 11/1, respectively.
Alex Apati of Ladbrokes said: “Liverpool’s loss looks set to be Napoli’s gain, with the Serie A leaders running away with things in the race for Firmino’s signature.”
