Manchester United will not be Philippe Coutinho's next destination


Manchester United will not be Philippe Coutinho's next destination, according to his agent, due to his strong affinity for Liverpool.

Philippe Coutinho will only consider returning to the Premier League to play for Liverpool and a potential move to Manchester United would be near impossible, according to agent Kia Joorabchian.

Liverpool love lingers for Coutinho

Coutinho moved to Barcelona from Liverpool in January 2018, the Reds receiving a transfer fee that could hit €160million (£142m) with add-ons.
He initially appeared to be a good fit, producing some solid performances in his first few months at Camp Nou as he finished the 2017-18 season with eight goals in 18 LaLiga matches.
But he flattered to deceive last term, netting only five times in 22 league starts as he failed to live up to expectations.
He has been linked with a transfer to United, with Barca said to be eager to free up funds to sign Neymar, but his agent effectively ruled out such a move.

Alex Ferguson may have achieved his famous aim of knocking Liverpool off their perch during his 26-year reign at Manchester United. But the Fergie glory years are a distant memory and it is their greatest rivals, under the expert management of Jurgen Klopp, who are now in the ascendency. Not that it will be much comfort, but United remain a step ahead of Liverpool off the field. For the 2017-18 season, the Red Devil...
