Manchester United target Philippe Coutinho refuses to rule out Barcelona exit

Coutinho refuses to rule out Barca exit

Midfielder Philippe Coutinho has refused to rule out an exit from Barcelona in the summer.

Coutinho has spent the last 14 months at Camp Nou, but the Brazilian has found himself in and out of Ernesto Valverde's starting lineup since the end of 2018.

The playmaker netted during the victory over Lyon in the Champions League on Wednesday night, but the alleged Manchester United target has acknowledged that his future at the Catalan giants remains unclear.

The 26-year-old is quoted by The Mirror as saying: "In the last few weeks, months even, I've not been playing well but I still want to improve.

"I came to Barcelona to give my best. I live for the moment. You never know what the future holds. I am happy with my performance today."

Coutinho has still contributed nine goals from 27 starts and 12 substitute outings during the current campaign.
