In the winter transfer period, a key to whether Barcelona can register for new aid is whether they can send away high-paying substitutes like Coutinho and Umtiti. Today, Coutinho’s future has been basically finalized. According to English media, Coutinho will join Aston Villa within 24 hours by renting and buying.
Aston Villa’s introduction of Coutinho directly stems from coach Gerrard’s desire to get a Brazilian. Coutinho scored 2 goals in 16 appearances at Barcelona this season, and he is no longer in Harvey’s regular lineup. In order to play more games in order to participate in the 2022 World Cup, Coutinho finally decided to leave Barcelona during the winter transfer period to return to England.
Coutinho’s contract with Barcelona expires in one and a half years. According to Barcelona’s team reporter Herald Romero, Aston Villa will bear 50%-70% of Coutinho’s salary, and the buyout amount will therefore be relatively low, but Villa Don’t want the buyout clause to be mandatory. Barcelona’s acceptance of Aston Villa’s offer is precisely to pay as little as possible for Coutinho in order to create enough salary space. The “Daily Sports” said that Aston Villa will directly lease Coutinho for a year and a half. After the lease contract expired, Coutinho’s contract with Barcelona also expired, which in fact means that Barcelona completed the contract with the Brazilian ahead of time with partial salaries.
According to the English media, Coutinho has asked his friends to find a house for himself in Birmingham. But Sky Sports now suddenly reported that Coutinho is still considering returning to Liverpool, he has not yet decided to join Aston Villa. Coutinho’s return to Liverpool? This is probably just wishful thinking of the Brazilians. At Coutinho’s current level, he does not have the ability to play for Liverpool at all.Return to Sohu to see more
