Philippe Coutinho

Liverpool star player Philippe Coutinho has been heavily linked with a move away from Anfield this month, and it now the talented Brazilian is bound to join Barcelona before the closure of the window.

According to reports circulating in Spain, the La Liga club have agreed on a deal to sign the samba star that could rise to £142million.

The Brazil international was not part of the party that clashed with Burnley on New Year Day, and he isn’t also playing against Everton in the FA Cup on Friday.

It was made known by sport-eglish that Barcelona have been negotiating with Liverpool continuously in the past few hours, and that both sides have finally settled on £142m for the player’s signature, and that the Catalan giants can pay £107m up front. This fee would make the samba star the second most expensive player of all-time behind his countryman Neymar.

Sport also said that Phillipe’s reps are currently in Spain to finalise everything and that the deal could even be announced before next week.

Barca have been keen on bringing the talented player to Camp Nou this month, and it appears they have finally gotten the Brazilian.

Liverp, on the other hand, are expected to sign Thomas Lemar from Monaco before the end of the transfer window.
