Paris Saint-Germain 'still lead Philippe Coutinho race'

PSG 'still lead Philippe Coutinho race'

Paris Saint-Germain are reportedly still in the driving seat to secure the services of Barcelona attacker Philippe Coutinho in this summer's transfer window.

Coutinho, 27, has largely struggled to make his mark for Barca since a 2018 arrival from Liverpool.

Jurgen Klopp's side are reportedly open to the possibility of re-signing the Brazilian ahead of the 2019-20 campaign.

However, according to Calciomercato, PSG are still leading the race for the playmaker as Juventus have also dropped their interest.

Coutinho - currently with the Brazil squad at the Copa America - recently admitted that he could leave the Spanish champions this summer in search of pastures new.

PSG's new sporting director Leonardo is said to be desperate to push through a deal following the completion of this summer's Copa America.
