DBasia.news – Just one year playing for FC Barcelona, Philippe Coutinho is rumored moving to another club in England amid the interest from Manchester United. Coutinho is under the speculation because he seldom plays in the regular squad.
Mirror reported on Saturday (19/1), Coutinho’s future in Barcelona is related closely to Ousmane Dembele’s performance. Apparently, the impressive performance of Dembele reduces the chance for Coutinho to play regularly.
Dembele who performs promisingly for Barcelona front line makes him eliminated so far. It’s surprising because Coutinho was signed from Liverpool last season to replace Andres Iniesta.
However, Barcelona coach Ernesto Valverde prefers Dembele instead of Coutinho. This is unexpected when he left Anfield Stadium to go to Spain.
With this situation, the speculation about the Brasilian future raised to the public. Man United’s interest on him would be a solution for Coutinho to gain back his game time.
But, it might be risky because he would be the number one enemy for Liverpool fans. No wonder, Liverpool and Man United are the rival just like Barcelona and Real Madrid. However, Coutinho must take a decision about his future in Barcelona.
