ALARM: Philippe Coutinho breaks down and his injury can be serious

This 2020 practically could not finish worse for the FC Barcelona that, in addition to accumulating another 'prick' in the Camp Nou against the Eibar (1-1), saw like another of his footballers lesionó in an unlucky action. It treats of Philippe Coutinho, that to fault of few minutes for the end of the party, threw to the floor and no longer could raise, having to be helped to abandon the lawn.

Waiting for the proofs that make him to Philippe Coutinho, the images are not for nothing optimistic. The international Brazilian did an ugly gesture with his knee when trying touch the balloon and instants afterwards remained tended on the terrain of game carrying the hand to the articulation. The fact that not even it could go out on his own two feet they are not precisely to relieve .

After the party, Ronald Koeman, trainer of the FC Barcelona, was asked after the state of Philippe Coutinho after his injury. "Has annoyances in the left knee and it is necessary to do him more proofs to see what has", commented. Some similar words to which launched on Ansu Fati does some weeks and that derived in a break of meniscus that will have him of drop until March.

It is necessary to remember that Philippe Coutinho had not been headline in the party against the Eibar, but it went in in the minute 66 substituting to Antoine Griezmann when the result was of 0-1 favourable to the Basque group. His contribution was a so much discreet, although yes it starred a finish dangerous to centre of Martin Braithwaite that it could turn into the goal of the victory.

The injury of Coutinho, a sportive and economic problem

Apparently in the last parties, Philippe Coutinho had finish yielding the titularity in favour of Pedri during the last parties. The Brazilian began the season to a very good level, but a muscular injury -that had him several weeks out of the terrains of game- separated him of this position of mediapunta in which it felt so comfortable and still has not been able to recover his best version.

It is thus that the FC Barcelona planned the traspaso of the midfield player carioca this same month of January, in addition to by economic reasons. The 12 million annual euros of index card that has Philippe Coutinho joins to that if the Brazilian plays eight parties more as Barcelona, the culés will have to pay 20 'kilos' more to the Liverpool. If his injury is mínimamente grave, his sale antoja very complicated.
