According to the 'Mirror', the footballer's intention is to stay at Barcelona. However, he knows that the market is changing and that the Spanish side could well sell him.
In fact, according to the cited media source, Barcelona could accept an offer for half of Coutinho's cost in January 2018. The Brazilian arrived with a price tag of 120 million euros plus 40 million in variable incomes and he could leave for less than 100 million.
The reasons that the Brazilian has put forward for not wanting to return to the Premier League is the fact that his family struggled to adapt while living in England and the problems that that brought with it.
Also, other options have arisen that mean that he can continue playing at the top level. One of them is PSG, according to 'Goal'. However, the French side should have a total of 150 million euros in profit this summer.
The other big club that Coutinho could go to is Bayern Munich. The German side are putting somewhat of a revolution into place this summer and could be on the hunt in the transfer market.
Coutinho has three months to convince Barcelona that he should continue with the side for next season. However, the change in system that we saw in the last match could mean that he will have less of a role to play in the side.
