THIS WAS THE REAL REASON WHY LIVERPOOL DID NOT SELL PHILIPPE COUTINHO.

Jose Mourinho has said this was the real reason why Liverpool did not sell Philippe Coutinho to Barcelona. During the summer transfer window, Barcelona had come forward with bids to buy the Brazilian play maker Philippe Coutinho from Liverpool, now Philippe Coutinho was brought to Liverpool from Italian giants Inter Milan for 8.5 million pounds only in 2013. Barcelona were very keen to buy him as they were watching him very closely for a few years. As they wanted a good replacement for the aging Andres Iniesta, who is now thirty three years old now. the final bid and t was Barcelona's third bid it was 116, one hundred and sixteen million pounds , it was broken into 80, eighty million pounds a cash and the rest as add ons. But Liverpool flatly refused the deal. Now Jose Mourinho has this to say as the sale deal of Neymar from Barcelona to P.S.G was a very huge inflated price of 198, one hundred and ninety eight million pounds, so every one knew Barcelona had a lot of money, so Liverpool just wanted to milk Barcelona, with a hope of getting even more money, this the height of greed dacoity I must say. While Liverpool said we are not a selling club , we do not sell our best players and so on stories. As you can see Liverpool did not need Philippe Coutinho to win their three matches in the new season, even against Arsenal. Jürgen Klopp had said Philippe coutinho had a back problem, but the back was okay to play a world cup qualifier for Brazil. One thing is clear Liverpool are poorer by over hundred million pounds, Philippe Coutinho will not get his desire to move to Barcelona, as Barcelona do not come knocking at your door twice, they are looking for a youngster Maximme Lopez to buy in his place.
