According to a recent report from Mundo Deportivo, Barcelona are willing to let Phillippe Coutinho leave the Nou Camp on a permanent basis for a fee of around £70 million. If they did so it would lead to a fairly substantial loss on their investment, considering they brought him in for around £146 million from Liverpool just two years ago.
He’s currently out on loan with Bayern Munich, although Baern aren’t willing to action the option to buy clause of around £102 million. As a result of this, Barca will be forced to haggle, as they attempt to work out the best possible deal with Bayern – which could see the Bundesliga giants be on the right end of a bargain if Coutinho is able to keep up his current run of form.
The Brazilian hasn’t quite been the same since he left Anfield at the start of 2018 and while some believe he could serve as a vital piece of the puzzle by returning to Merseyside, others don’t think he’d be particularly well received by the Reds faithful.
