Liverpool are prepared to sell Philippe Coutinho in January.
That’s according to reports in Barcelona, where El Mundo Deportivo says the Reds are prepared to let Coutinho go to Barca next month.
Barcelona scouts watched the 25-year-old at Wembley on Sunday as Jurgen Klopp’s side were beaten 4-1 by Tottenham.
They also state that the German has neither ruled out a sale, nor denied that an agreement exists between the two clubs over his eventual transfer.
Klopp is quoted saying: “I have no idea. We will see. We do not talk about things like this. Can you imagine what it would be like to say “yes, we have an agreement”?
“Right now, the truth is that nobody thinks about this. We do not talk about that, why should we?
“In general, as a club, we have to create a situation in which players want to be part of everything they have. At this point, we have this. Nobody thinks about January, nobody thinks about June or July.
“Everyone wants to be part of this, but there will be transfer windows and we will see what happens.”
