Asking price revealed for £142m former Liverpool star amid Manchester United links

An ESPN Journalist has described the chances of Philippe Coutinho leaving Barcelona this summer as “unlikely”, however, David Aymoral believes the La Liga giants would demand north of €100million (£88million) for the Brazil international. Coutinho is only a year into his contract at the Camp Nou following his £142million move from Liverpool last January, but he has been linked with a move to Manchester United. Aymoral told ESPN: “A deal looks rather unlikely in January since the Blaugrana would want more than €100million to even consider the departure of the crown jewel of their transfer campaign last winter.”
