Philippe Coutinho is not the only player that has put money of his part to speed up his arrival to the FC Barcelona. Paulinho Also did it this past summer, whereas in previous stages also Javier Mascherano and Cesc Fábregas

Calendar of FC Barcelona

After it have trascended in the Catalan press -in concrete in 'MD'- that Philippe Coutinho would have put 15 million euros of his part to unblock the negotiations and fichar by the FC Barcelona, fits to remember that the Brazilian is not the first footballer that has a gesture of such consideration to finish closing his course to the Camp Nou.

His compatriot Paulinho, without going more far, already recessed also his signing by the FC Barcelona this summer when, in a traspaso priced in 40 million euros, Paulinho put of his pocket seven millions and half to recess like this the final price of the Barça and give green light to the operation.

The effort of Coutinho is of the double of money, although the true is that the operation by the player of 25 years practically cuadruplica in price to the signing of Paulinho by the Barça. The case is that the Barça values a lot to the players that involve so much in dressing the Barcelona T-shirt, and in what it can the club culé recompensará of some form to Coutinho by his 'sacrifice'.

Mascherano And Cesc also sacrificed

It gives the casualidad that, in the last days, Mascherano has conceded an interview to 'ESPN' in which it has spoken also of when it did an economic sacrifice for fichar by the FC Barcelona in 2010, also pertinent of the Liverpool. "I spoke with Leo Messi in his moment of the Barça and was a dream come. More the Barcelona of Guardiola with all what represented in this moment for the world and struggled therefore".

"It was not the best way to go out, did not like me, but was my possibility, did not go to have another. It was that in this moment because the same a club like this does not go you to go to look for two years followed. If you say him that no, it goes and search to another. That is the reality. It did not like me have the feeling to be able to go back to Liverpool some day and that it have remained something contaminated. It would not like me that in the Barcelona happen me the same", went an extract of the interview.

To all this, in addition to Mascherano and Paulinho, Cesc Fábregas also made in 2011 an economic sacrifice when renouncing to a remarkable part of the wage that there was pactado initially to return to the Barcelona. Well, everything seems to indicate that Coutinho will be the following in having a good gesture with the Barça to accelerate his arrival.
