The costliest signing in Barcelona’s history has struggled to strike a note in the Catalan outfit and has clearly fallen off the perch in Valverde’s good books.
The versatile Brazilian has lost the left-central midfield position to Arthur Melo and the left-wing position to Ousmane Dembele.
The versatile Brazilian has lost the left-central midfield position to Arthur Melo and the left-wing position to Ousmane Dembele.
His poor form has even sparked rumours that the Spanish giants want to offload him and are willing to listen to offers.
With Dembele side-lined due to injury for at least two weeks, Coutinho should be a guaranteed starter on the left wing for four games.
The former Liverpool man is hence presented with a golden opportunity to assert himself and claim a spot in the starting line-up. Should he perform well, he will be high on confidence in the most crucial phase of the season as Barcelona resume their quest for all three trophies.
It’s now or never for Coutinho and he must not let this slip.
