Philippe Coutinho's representative to hold talks over Barcelona move

The agent of Philippe Coutinho will reportedly hold talks with Barcelona next week over a winter potential move. The Brazil international was tipped to leave Liverpool during the summer transfer window, but the Reds declined multiple bids from the Camp Nou outfit.

Despite this, Barca are still in the hunt for Coutinho with Liverpool open to the prospect of selling their playmaker in the New Year.

According to Mundo Deportivo, the Catalan giants will make another attempt to pursue Coutinho with representative Kia Joorabchian due to meet up with their hierarchy.

Barcelona made a final offer worth £72m plus add-ons - accumulating to £100m last summer, and they are unlikely to improve on this offer during the January transfer window.

Coutinho has been in bright form for the Reds of late, but he is still determined to seal his dream move to Barcelona, where he is pretty much assured of a regular starting spot.
