Philippe Coutinho in the 2019 Summer Transfer Vortex

DBasia.news –  The summer transfer window has been relatively quiet recently, however, one large transfer could trigger a domino effect that affects players and other teams.

According to news published by Sport-English, the trigger for the transfer could have come from Barcelona attacking midfielder Philippe Coutinho. The domino effect will affect transfers: Neymar, Mauro Icardi, and Paulo Dybala.  

Why is that? The assumption is that if Coutinho leaves Barcelona to go to PSG (Paris Saint-Germain), whether it’s a Neymar transfer deal or a different transfer, PSG will no longer have the intention of bringing Dybala.

Then, if La Joya – Dybala’s nickname – survives at Juventus then the club’s transfer also ends. The Bianconeri will not recruit Mauro Icardi from Inter Milan because they say they will use Dybala’s sales money to recruit Icardi.

So, if Dybala survives, Juventus will be satisfied with the eight recruits they already have this season. Moreover, they still have Mario Mandzukic, Gonzalo Higuain, and Cristiano Ronaldo up front.

Besides, the chance for AS Roma to exchange Edin Dzeko for Icardi is also open. It’s no secret if Icardi has not entered into Antonio Conte’s plan, Inter coach until he has been confirmed to leave or stay and play in the reserve team.

All of the above possibilities, except those involving Rome, could happen if Coutinho was finally anchored at Thomas Tuchel’s PSG. Neymar was not only linked back to Barcelona  but was also rumored to go to Real Madrid.  

Philippe Coutinho’s Chance to PSG: 45%

Barcelona don’t mind releasing Coutinho as long as they get Neymar. PSG also accepts Coutinho. Just looking for an agreement whether the transfer occurs with a player barter scheme or barter plus cash.
