The moral that has left the signing of Philippe Coutinho

Philippe Coutinho landed in the FC Barcelona in January of the 2018 from the Liverpool, in return of at all less than 145 million euros, a figure that, until the day of today, follows weighing in the finances of the Barcelona picture. After three years and little more than his signing, the Brazilian footballer has not known to show his cost totally, by what has begun to be signalled like a failure.

His adaptation was quite difficult, although it has characteristics that indicated that it could arrive to the Barcelona to stand out categorically. However, his good touch and big hit did not serve him to stick in the plans of the team, in where it positioned him in a demarcation in which it did not finish to feel comfortable totally.

Incidentally, the dynamics of the team was another factor that hampered his estadia in the Barcelona, where little by little was losing weight, until it found the solution to command it yielded to the Bayern of Munich, during the season 2019-20. In the Bavarian picture played with heights and basses, but finished showing a positive level and some remarkable changes, like the increase of his muscular mass.

After having gone back to the Barcelona for the campaign 2020-21, Coutinho began the season showing interesting things and, again, was losing impulse paulatinamente. An unlucky injury suffered to finals of the past year seem to have dug the grave of the Brazilian like player of the Catalan team, since hardly it will go back to have regularity in the last parties of the first semester of the 2021, because of the clauses that the picture culé would have to pay to the Liverpool if the Brazilian reaches some figure of meetings contested.

Incidentally, his possible exit of the Barcelona antoja more difficult of what would owe, since Coutinho has lost enough market and his alone name retumba in the Premier League, where better went him. In case it was little, his constant devaluation in the market of signings prevents that the Barcelona do illusions with recovering at least an important part of the 145 millions invested in his purchase, since his current value is of hardly 40 "kilos", according to Transfermarkt.

The "moral Coutinho"

The case of Philippe Coutinho has to be framed in the examples of events that do not have to go back to suceder in the breast of the FC Barcelona, club that, as a result of this, has to learn to analyse better the situations in which they handle big quantities of money. The 222 millions that the picture culé received by part of the PSG by the purchase of Neymar had to have been invested of another way and no despilfarrados, like step with the ex Inter of Milan.
