Liverpool are prepared to listen to Barcelona’s offer for Philippe Coutinho this month, however, the Catalans would have to pay at least £100 million up front to get their man.
According to The Sun, the Reds have set a total asking price of £132 million for the Brazilian’s signature.
Coutinho is also keen on a move to the Catalans and several reports have been surfacing of him trying to force the move through this month, with some even suggesting he has already begun house hunting in Catalonia.
Liverpool manager, Jurgen Klopp would love him to stay until the summer at least when he would have sorted out a replacement, with Schalke’s Leon Goretzka his number one target.
Barcelona are not the only side interested in signing Coutinho, PSG are also monitoring his situation as his best friend, Neymar would love to have him at the Parc des Princess.
However, Coutinho has his heart set on moving to Spain to play alongside his former team mate, Luis Suarez.
He has reportedly already agreed a five years deal with the Catalans that would see him at least double his current earnings.
