A little more and they give it away: the unusual starting price that Barcelona put on Philippe Coutinho

Nobody can believe it. Philippe Coutinho was one of the footballers that FC Barcelona tried to give way out in the past transfer market. However, the Catalan cast was unsuccessful due to the high financial demands that they requested for their transfer, as well as the record that the footballer receives annually since he landed at the Camp Nou in the summer of 2018, from Liverpool for 135 millions of euros.

After spending a year on loan at Bayern Munich, the Brazilian had the opportunity to return to Barcelona to recover his best version. But, after a great start to the 2020-21 season, an injury took him away from the pitch until now, something that further complicates the departure of the 29-year-old attacker.

Due to this, the Blaugrana team, which has already decided to release the player, opted to lower its starting price. According to the information provided by the newspaper 'Sport’, the Catalans will accept any type of offer that is close to 30 million euros.

In the Camp Nou offices they are already working to give way to the South American attacker. One of the reasons is their very high annual record, so in the winter market, they will seek to close the exit of one of the signings that has not performed as expected. Of course, it is still pending to define its destiny.
