"I would bring Coutinho back to Liverpool without thinking twice"

If an offer comes along which pleases him, Barcelona will sell Coutinho this summer because he has not responded as was expected of him. Apart from his on field performances, the Brazilian was booed by the Barcelona faithful. 

Barca know that if they sell him this summer, they would save at least 25 million, which are those which they would not have to pay Liverpool as a result of the various clauses added to his contract. 

Despite the fact he was booed on his recent visit to Anfield, there are those who defend his return to Liverpool. Like for example the ex-footballer Phil Thompson, who wore the kit for 13 years. 

"I would bring him back without thinking twice, but it should be now, not in a year's time. He is suffering at Barcelona, they have put him on the flank and he is not Neymar. They don't love him as we did here," he said to 'Sky Sports'. 

With one league game plus the cup final which he may not play due to injury, Coutinho has played 53 games this season, 37 of them as a starter. He has scored 11 goals and given four assists.
