Coutinho has ‘absolutely no idea’ what Catalan press are talking about šŸ˜‚

Posted by

Last night, Liverpool fans were given the very reassuring news that the club has no intention of selling Coutinho, despite Spanish media outlets talking up the possibility of our Brazilian joining Barcelonaā€¦

Melissa Reddy confirmed as much in Goal, suggesting Jurgen Klopp and Liverpool wonā€™t budge and our no.10 is happy at AnfieldĀ ā€“ not agitating for an exit in any way.

The likes of Sport and Mundo Deportivo are closely linked to the Catalan giants and often help unsettle their transfer targets with bold stories about Barcelona closing in on themā€¦ Real Madrid do it too with Marca;Ā and it famously worked on Tottenham duo Gareth Bale and Luka Modric.

But a tweet last night from Brazilian football journalist @BrazilStat, whoā€™s given us a very interesting interview before, claimed that the player himself is genuinely confused by the lies made up in the Catalan press that heā€™s already agreed personal terms with Barca.

So there you have it: despite Barca bidding Ā£72m (it was rejected out of hand), the player hasnā€™t agreed anything with Los Cules and is currently enjoying Liverpoolā€™s training camp in Germany.

This is the situation and weā€™re completely sure heā€™ll be wearing red at the start of the campaign.
