Liverpool Dismiss Million Dollar Coutinho Approach From Barcelona…..Say Player Is ‘Priceless’

Jurgen Klopp insists Liverpool are under no pressure to sell Philippe Coutinho and considers the midfielder priceless to the club. Liverpool rejected a second bid from Barcelona for the Brazil international on Wednesday, with the Spanish club’s latest offer worth up to £90.4m.Liverpool have repeatedly stated Coutinho will not be sold and their position is strengthened by the five-year contract he signed only last season. While interested in joining Barcelona, Coutinho has not agitated for a Liverpool exit and has shown no sign of doing so since the first bid was made.Klopp spoke to the forward in Hong Kong when Barcelona first formalised their interest to stress his importance to the team and reiterate the club’s determination to keep him. He is expected to miss Liverpool’s opening game of the Premier League season at Watford on Saturday, owing to a back injury.
