Barcelona stars ‘unhappy with salary offered to Philippe Coutinho’ as La Liga giants step up interest

Some good news about Philippe Coutinho…at last!

Liverpool fans have had to put up with speculation over the Brazilian’s future for the last few days with Barcelona confident of securing a deal.

But reports in Spain suggest the current Nou Camp crop aren’t best pleased that Coutinho will be offered a £10.5m-a-year salary.

Don Balon claims the likes of Gerard Pique have already voiced their concerns.

Could he stay after all?

Coutinho will be a Barcelona player ‘in days’

Philippe Coutinho will be a Barcelona player “in the next few days,” according to reports in Spain, as the Blaugrana plot a British record move for the Liverpool No.10.

The Brazilian is eager to move to the Camp Nou this month, though Jurgen Klopp will be desperate to delay the transfer until the summer to improve his side’s chances of qualifying for next season’s Champions League.

Spanish newspaper Sport believe the final details will be sorted “in the next few days” with both clubs meeting on Wednesday in London.

The 25-year-old has hit 12 goals in 18 games this season to position the Reds well to retain a top four finish and go deep in the Champions League with a last 16 tie with Porto.
