Liverpool transfer news: Philippe Coutinho ‘pushing for exit’ as Barcelona set £100m transfer limit on Brazilian
La Liga giants are refusing to go over their set fee for the Brazilian as the king of the Kop remains determined to leave the Premier League giants
BARCELONA have set a maximum price of £100m on Philippe Coutinho as the Brazilian reportedly continues to push for a move away from Liverpool.
Jurgen Klopp successfully managed to hold onto his talisman this summer despite the intense interest from the La Liga.
However, claim the 25-year-old is still in regular contact with "technicians, executives and Barcelona players."
He shares a close bond with former Anfield favourite as well as new Nou Camp signing and fellow countryman Paulinho.
And despite Coutinho already appearing in the Champions League for Liverpool, the Catalans are undeterred despite him being cup-tied.
The Reds have so far refused to budge on their valuation of £177.5m.
Coutinho has returned from injury in fine form for the Kop outfit in recent weeks and has scored three goals in his last free matches.
He is now hoping to continue his goalscoring exploits onto the international stage.
The attacker is currently with the Brazil squad preparing for their final World Cup qualifiers.
The Selecao, who have already guaranteed top spot in their group, take on Bolivia before facing Chile.
