Firmino has agreed a five-year contract, worth more than a £100,000 per week.
He requires a work permit and will complete the formalities of a medical at Anfield once the Copa America is over.
Firmino, who was previously linked with Manchester United, has been Liverpool's top target for the summer window and completing the transfer is a statement of intent. The Reds will pay £22m up front as part of the transfer.
It could pave the way for Raheem Sterling to be sold, though Liverpool refuse to take anything less than £50m for the England international after Manchester City saw their previous bids turned down.

It is also a statement of support from manager Brendan Rodgers, who will start the season under scrutiny following the dismal end to the last campaign.
