Philippe Coutinho's transfer: Liverpool's position on the Barcelona star in the midst of speculation

Liverpool does not intend to dismiss Philippe Coutinho from Barcelona.

The former Reds midfielder is worried in Spain just a year after signing a five-year contract as a result of a £ 142 million transfer from Liverpool.

The Jurgen Klopp team did their utmost to try to retain the Brazilian – a remarkable player in his progressive team – in January 2018.

But Coutinho was keen to settle in Barcelona and, in the end, Liverpool could do nothing but part with the Brazilian.

Coutinho had a good start in Spain but fell out of order at Nou camp in recent weeks as Ousmane Dembele, Arthur and Arturo Vidal were competing for the first team spots.

Barcelona boss Ernesto Valverde recently asked the midfielder to pull out and redouble his efforts. Coutinho responded by giving a decisive pbad to victory over Eibar.

The Brazilian wants to stay in Barcelona at least until the end of the season, where he plans to review his situation.

The best European clubs will obviously keep an eye on Coutinho, but a club that will not be Liverpool is, according to The Telegraph.

The Reds are not planning to re-sign the midfield and are focusing their efforts on finding new talent.
