Philippe Coutinho unsure of Barcelona future

Philippe Coutinho unsure of Barcelona future

Barcelona attacker Philippe Coutinho has conceded that his future at Camp Nou is far from secure.

The 27-year-old has struggled to make his mark for Barca since arriving from Liverpool in January 2018, managing just five La Liga goals for the club during the 2018-19 campaign.

Paris Saint-Germain, Liverpool, Manchester United and Chelsea have all been credited with an interest in the playmaker since the end of last season.

Coutinho - away with the Brazil squad at the 2019 Copa America - has said that he is desperate to "succeed" at Barca but has hinted at a summer departure.

"I have a contract with Barcelona, ​​it was always my will to succeed in this club. But now I am totally concentrated here [with Brazil] and about the future [with Barca] we do not know what will happen," Coutinho told reporters.

PSG are thought to lead the race for the South American, with the French club's sporting director Leonardo keen to push through a deal after this summer's Copa America.
