Barcelona plan fourth bid for Philippe Coutinho

Barca to make fourth bid for Coutinho

Barcelona plan fourth bid for Philippe Coutinho

23 August 2017 - 08:38

Barcelona are reportedly maintaining their interest in Liverpool attacker Philippe Coutinho with a fourth offer likely to be made in the coming days.

  • Mikel Arteta insists 27yo star won't be leaving Arsenal
  • Omari Hutchinson wants to continue at Ipswich Town

  • The Catalan giants have failed with three bids for the Brazil international with their latest offer of £118m swiftly knocked back by the Reds.

    It had been recently suggested that Coutinho and his representative could hold clear-to-air talks with the Reds in order to withdraw the transfer request, but the saga does not seize to end.

    According to Sky Sports News, the 25-year-old is determined to push through a move away from Merseyside with Barcelona having no intention to back down.

    The former Spanish champions will propose an improved £138m package for the attacker with £101m to be paid up front. The remaining £37m sum is likely to be adjusted in add-ons which are Champions League related and easily achievable.

    Coutinho has not taken part for Liverpool this season to a back injury but Jurgen Klopp is adamant that the Brazilian will remain at Anfield beyond the summer.
