Barcelona to make €80m January bid for Coutinho

Given that Liverpool rejected offers of up to £118m for Coutinho this summer, it's hard to see the Brazilian leaving Anfield in the new year, but Barcelona will still try.

The Spanish giants still see a place for the playmaker at the Nou Camp, and will test the Red's resolve with a bid of around €80m, according to the 'Spanish Football Expert'.

Ernesto Valverde is still searching for player to fill the void left by Neymar, who completed a stunning £198m move to PSG in August.

The transfer saga rumbles on and it appears that the decision is, once again, in Liverpool's hands. Will their stance have softened? Or will it be another case of playing hardball for Jurgen Klopp? Only time will tell...
