Liverpool’s new signing Roberto Firmino takes The National Sport front page on Saturday, June 27, ahead of Brazil’s Copa America quarter-final against Paraguay.

Firmino, 23, agreed a deal to sign for Premier League club earlier in the week, but his focus is on helping his country reach the semi-finals of the South American tournament.

Should Brazil defeat Paraguay on Saturday night (1.30am Sunday morning in UAE), arch-rivals Argentina await in the last-four.

In the other semi-final, it is another derby match as rivals Chile and Peru battle for a place in the final.
