PSG to wrap up Coutinho deal after Copa America?

Paris Saint-Germain will reportedly attempt to wrap up a deal for Barcelona attacker Philippe Coutinho following the completion of the 2019 Copa America.

Coutinho is currently with the Brazil squad at the Copa America and scored twice in their tournament opener against Bolivia last week.

The 27-year-old's club future is far from secure, however, with a disappointing 2018-19 campaign seeing him score just five La Liga goals for the Spanish champions.

PSG have been strongly linked with the former Liverpool playmaker over the last few weeks.

According to AS, the French club's new sporting director Leonardo has already made contact with Coutinho's camp and will attempt to secure a deal once the Copa America has finished.

The attacker has reportedly rejected the chance to join Manchester United this summer due to his respect for former club Liverpool.
