Liverpool & Everton Set to Fight It Out for Barcelona’s Philippe Coutinho

However, since that expensive move the Brazilian playmaker has failed to make an impact with Barcelona.

This has recently forced Barcelona to consider selling the Brazilian to get his wages off their books.

Reports in summer claimed that the Spanish side were willing to let him go for £20million, a £121million loss on their original investment.

Liverpool and Everton to Battle It Out for Philippe Coutinho

In a recent report from Fichajes, they claim that Liverpool and Everton are both keeping an eye on Coutinho's situation.

Everton are known for signing Barcelona flops like Yerry Mina, Lucas Digne and Andrew Gomes.

So Coutinho signing for them would make sense.

Liverpool's involvement in this report it probably down to the fact that he knows the current players and coaching staff.

However, if Coutinho was to have re-joined Liverpool, it would've happened a few years ago, but who knows, weirder things have happened.
