Brazil international Neymar has reiterated his intention to feature alongside Liverpool midfielder Philippe Coutinho at Barcelona in the future.

The pair are said to have a fruitful relationship on the international stage, and Neymar now feels that Coutinho could be the perfect signing for the Spanish champions.

Coutinho only inked a long-term deal two months ago - thought to be without an escape clause, but this has not stopped speculation over his future.

Neymar recently heaped praise on Coutinho citing that he would totally fit in at Camp Nou, and he has gone further to hint over a potential reunion in club colours.

"I would sign him," Neymar told Mundo Deportivo. "[Out of my Brazilian teammates] he's the player I see playing in Barcelona."

Coutinho, who joined Liverpool from Inter Milan in the summer of 2013, has managed seven goals and five assists across all competitions for his side this term.
