The 26-year-old is reportedly unhappy in Spain and has been heavily linked with a move away, with Chelsea, Manchester United and PSG believed to be keen.
The report claims Chelsea are looking at him as a replacement for Eden Hazard should the Belgian seal a move to Real Madrid.
Any summer business for the Blues is uncertain after they were hit with a transfer ban, which could be overturned. But Sport claim Coutinho would be ‘delighted’ to fill the void of Hazard at Stamford Bridge and join up with the strong Brazilian contingent at the club.
The transfer speculation comes amid news that Barca
PSG also remains an option, with Neymar desperate to link up with Coutinho, a player he urged the club to sign when he left Barcelona. Neymar is also on Real’s radar and he could quit the French club this summer.
However, Sport claim that wouldn’t stop Coutinho from signing for PSG, as he would be open to leading them alongside Kylian Mbappe.
United have also been linked as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer looks to strengthen after being confirmed as Jose Mourinho’s permanent successor.
