In January 2018, Philippe Coutinho, who moved from "Liverpool" to "Barcelona" for about 135 million euros, does not demonstrate the kind of game that was expected of him. There have been reports in the foreign media multiple times that the 26-year-old Brazilian is willing to return to the "Premier" league, with "Manchester United" and "Chelsea" teams showing the most interest in the player. However, P. Coutinho himself, in an interview with "Mirror", stated that he is happy in Spain and does not plan to return to the "Premier" league in the near future. "My thoughts are only in Barcelona. Returning to England is not part of my plans at the moment. I am playing my second season here. I have already won trophies, but I am ambitious and demanding player, so I always want more. I am happy. I wanted to play in Spain, and now I am in the best team in this country," said P. Coutinho. Brazilian player played 44 matches and scored 10 goals for "Barca" this season.
