E.Petit: P.Coutinho - unnecessary "Liverpool" © „Pexels“

World champion Emmanuel Petit commented on reports that the Brazilian Philippe Coutinho, who did not fit in at "Barcelona" and "Bayern" Munich clubs, could return to the "Liverpool" team. According to the Frenchman, this deal would not benefit the team, and the player himself should not want to represent the "Reds". "He won't return to Liverpool. For example, when I was playing for Barcelona, Arsenal wanted to bring me back and I was close to moving. But ultimately I thought: 'Emmanuel, be honest with yourself - if you left there just a year ago, there must have been a reason.' If Ph.Coutinho is like that, he will see that since his departure the team has triumphed in the Champions League and is one step away from the Premier League gold. "Liverpool" doesn't need him, so why should the Brazilian come back?" - asked E.Petit.
