Technically, it does ---just not the design we expect: it is U+FB01, recognized both by UnicodeChecker and Font Book. Try

\documentclass{minimal}
\usepackage[paperwidth=3in,paperheight=4in,text={12pc,11pc}]{geometry}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{lmodern}
\begin{document}
\thispagestyle{empty}
\fontsize{72}{72}\selectfont
\noindent{f{}i \quad fi}
\noindent{\sffamily f{}i \quad fi}
\end{document}

and see the attached PDF


Best,

Axel
