Arsenal still want Coutinho?

According to a recent report from L’Equipe, Premier League side Arsenal are said to be the frontrunners to sign Philippe Coutinho once again – but not on a permanent deal. The club have apparently agreed terms over some kind of loan deal which, of course, would see the Brazilian eventually return to the Nou Camp.

Coutinho has been dragged in a million and one different directions since the summer transfer window began, and because of all that uncertainty, it’s impossible to trust any rumours or reports until they’re considered to be hard facts.

Nobody knows which way this thing is going to turn and, in a lot of ways, that is what will keep the excitement going all the way through until the window closes.

It doesn’t feel like Coutinho is going to be a Barcelona player for much longer, but they really are starting to run out of time when it comes to the current window.
