- Barcelona are planning to launch another bid to try and sign Philippe Coutinho
- The La Liga side tried to sign the Brazil international during the summer window
- Liverpool rejected three of their offers and are holding out for 200million euros
- Mundo Deportivo are reporting Barca are preparing a new bid worth 110m euros
Barcelona will try to sign Liverpool ace Philippe Coutinho again in the January transfer window, according to Mundo Deportivo.
The Catalan giants pursued the Brazil international throughout the summer but failed to strike a deal, seeing three offers rebuffed by Liverpool.
The Premier League club have repeatedly stated they are reluctant to sell their key man unless their demand of 200million euros is met.
Barcelona will make another move to sign Philippe Coutinho, according to Mundo Deportivo
But with their summer arrival Ousmane Dembele ruled out for the next four months, due to a thigh injury, Barca are said to be preparing a fresh move for the 25-year-old.
The Spanish newspaper are reporting Barca are weighing up an offer worth 80m euros with an extra 30m in add-ons, the equivalent of £97m in total.
After failing to secure a move to the Nou Camp Coutinho has since met with Jurgen Klopp and the pair have managed to put a fractious summer behind them.
Coutinho tried to ditch Liverpool for Barca in the summer but has returned to Jurgen Klopp’s XI
The Brazil international has been in sensational form with three goals in his last three matches
He made his highly anticipated return to the Liverpool side during their 2-2 Champions League draw with Sevilla and has since featured five times.
Coutinho has proved how valuable he is to Klopp’s side recently, scoring three goals in his last three matches, which may prompt Liverpool to rethink their initial demands.
However, Barca’s forthcoming offer is nowhere near the asking price and Liverpool could be set for another tempestuous window with Coutinho expected to try and force through a move again.
