LIVERPOOL will give Philippe Coutinho a winners medal should they beat Real Madrid in tomorrow’s Champions League final in Kiev.
Coutinho left Anfield for Barcelona in a £145million move in January but Liverpool look set to reward him for his involvement for the Reds during the group stages.
Coutinho made five appearances in the group stages this season before his January move to Barcelona
The Brazilian made five appearances in the group stages this season, scoring five goals including a hat-trick in the 7-0 demolition of Spartak Moscow when he captained the side.
But his move to the Nou Camp in January surrendered his chance to play in the competition for the remainder of the season.
Liverpool, though, are happy to reward Coutinho with a medal for his efforts.
The 25-year-old playmaker has made 22 appearences for Barca since his transfer, scoring 10 goals including a hat-trick in the 5-4 defeat to Levante and the only goal of their final league game of the season against Real Sociedad.
Coutinho bagged a hat-trick in the 7-0 win over Spartak Moscow in December.
He also netted 10 goals for Barcelona in the second half of the season, including on the final day against Real Sociedad
