Liverpool boss Jürgen Klopp is confident that Philippe Coutinho will remain at Liverpool. Barcelona expressed their interest in the attacking midfielder who is currently having in the form of his life.
Coutinho’s emergence has compelled the Catalans to make him a potential target. Liverpool are currently leading the Premier League table after a string of brilliant performances. Coutinho signed a new five-year deal last February but The Reds could offer him a new deal to ward off interests from other clubs.
Liverpool have looked rejuvenated under the German’s guidance and he is ready to carry on the momentum. He said, “My opinion is that Phil feels really well here. We all hope and think that his future is here at Liverpool.
“The club is not a problem, our owners are not a problem. It is about creating the perspective that no-one wants to leave.”
The Brazilian midfielder arrived from Inter Milan in 2013 and went on to become one of the most improved players at the Anfield.
Klopp further added, “If there is a club that can pay double what we pay then I will bring the player there because who am I to say: ‘No, no no, please don’t think about the family and the kids and the grandkids and their kids’.
“But I don’t know a lot of clubs in the world who are able to do this.”
