Hoffenheim star Firmino reacts to Arsenal rumours: Anything possible!

Hoffenheim midfielder Roberto Firmino isn't getting carried away about fresh talk of a move away.

The Brazilian is emerging as a summer target for Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger.

"Why? My contract runs for a long time, going to 2017," Firmino declared when asked about exit rumours.

"But anything is possible. My contract is still in progress, yes, to 2017. We'll have to wait until the end of the season."

Hoffenheim rate Firmino at €30 million.

"Overall, the numbers are crazy. But the market sets the price," said Schalke coach Markus Gisdol. "So if you have a really good player then you just have to try to find a price that the market will bear."
