DBasia.news – Tottenham Hotspur’s plan to borrow Philippe Coutinho from Barcelona is certain to be canceled. As the transfer window for the British region has closed.
There has been negotiations between between Tottenham and Barcelona. However, the complexity of the negotiations has caused the agreement to never happen as the transfer market was closed.
Blaugrana now has a number of players in the same position who are likely to fight over the main place. Aside from Coutinho, they still have Antoine Griezmann, Ousmane Dembele and Arthur. This has made it even more difficult for Ernesto Valverde as a coach.
Tottenham became one of the clubs interested in using the services of Coutinho with a loan option. The Lilywhites competed with city rivals Arsenal, but until now the deal never happened. Now, the next task is to defend Christian Eriksen from the clutches of other teams.
