Barcelona still in for Philippe Coutinho?

Barcelona still in for Philippe Coutinho?

Barcelona will reportedly make a late attempt to Philippe Coutinho from Liverpool. The Spanish transfer window is open until 11 pm tonight and the Catalan giants are still hoping to land the Brazil international.

  • Ernesto Valverde's side have made multiple attempts to sign the attacker this summer with their latest bid of around £114m knocked back by the Reds.

    Jurgen Klopp has repeatedly cited that Coutinho won't be leaving the club, but Barcelona are prepared to test their resolve with a club-record bid worth £138m on Friday, Sport claims.

    Liverpool only managed to sign Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain from Arsenal on transfer deadline day while failing in the pursuits of Southampton's Virgil van Dijk and Monaco's Thomas Lemar. As a result, they are unlikely to permit Coutinho's sale to the Spanish giants that the English transfer window has come to a close.

    The 25-year-old has not featured for Liverpool since the start of the season due to a back problem, but he netted a stunner for Brazil against Ecuador in a World Cup qualifier last night.
