FC Bayern Munich confirmed on Friday the reports that appeared in the media regarding the loan of Philippe Coutinho.

The Bavarian team stated in an official announcement that they have reached an agreement with Barcelona for a one-year loan. Next summer, Bayern will have the option to acquire all rights to the Brazilian.

P. Coutinho watched the Barcelona team's performance at the Bilbao stadium last Friday, but immediately after the match, it was confirmed that the Brazilian will not continue the season with the Catalan team.
