The most expensive signing of the history of the Barça follows disappointing

The most expensive signing of the history of the Barça has not covered the expectations that had of him, just now, could know that Philippe Coutinho will remain more time of drop of the that expected . In the last hours knew that the Brazilian subjected to another operation, by what will require more time to be in perfect conditions.

As a result of this new surgical intervention, the Brazilian midfield player will not be able to assist to the next appointments futbolísticas that will have the team led by Koeman in his way to the doublet of League Santander and the Glass of Rey, as the time of recovery will carry it to lose what subtracts of the current season.

Under performance

The bad performance that has offered Coutinho since it began to dress the Barcelona colours has analysed in multiple occasions. The Brazilian arrived to the Camp Nou on 6 January 2018 from the Liverpool and the barcelonismo, orphan of leadership after the exit of Neymar of the PSG, received his signing with a big expectation, since his signing was extremely costly (160 million euros).

However, the disillusionment did not take in suppressing any hope that had on the midfield player. The first apparitions of the attacker in the cesped were not bad, but to the barcelonismo did not cost him understand that the footballer that saw to play could not compare with the left surprised to the combined of the "reds" in Ties it Premier.

Coutinho Finalised his first season like culé with a relatively acceptable balance, annotated nine goals and seven assistances in 22 parties. The registers, without being stellar, allowed him encarar the first complete season in the Barça with optimism and wishes to win a place of importance with the Catalan square. Lamentably, the step to in front that it expected of him never arrived. In 3.345 minutes divided in 54 alone commitments celebrated 11 so many and delivered five assistances.

In spite of his initial figures, the impact of the Brazilian with the Barcelona was very scarce. In fact, the Catalan club yielded it to the Bayern with an option of purchase of 120 million way that the sportive operation, that finished being fruitless, was beneficial to the economy of the entity.

In the Bayern refused it

In the German square neither finish to convince. Since it arrived, the German leaders descartaron pay him to the Barça by ficharlo, at the end, neither were had to negotiate a traspaso more accessible.

His importance in the triplete of Hansi Flick was fundamentally circunstancial. The doublet that aimed in the disastrous 2-8 of of the Barcelona only maquilló a season where was not able to cover the expectations. Only it annotated nine targets and gave nine passes of goal with the Bayern.

The enormous economic debt of the Barcelona, aggravated by the pandemia, caused that Coutinho happened again by the Camp Nou. The good physical state with which returned of Germany and the 4-2-3-1 by which bet Koeman after arriving caused some illusion. But the light of the Brazilian went back to go turning off paulatinamente.

His come to less

Until the moment of his injury during his last party against the Eibar marked three goals and aimed two assistances in 14 meetings. It was casualidad or no, from said injury, of which still does not recover , the team culé has not left to grow.

Other Catalan footballers like Dest have obtained a major prominence and, although it had achieved to recover to time to Coutinho only would obtain a role like acting. More even considering that after having 90 parties played, if it plays ten appointments more the combined culé would have to pay him 20 million euros to the Liverpool, since this is a clause that appears in his agreement.

Gone out to the Premier?

In spite of that with the Barcelona did not have the performance expected, does not mean that the Brazilian do not have clubs interested in ficharlo. Could know that the Arsenal considers to the midfield player like a possible signing if it is not able to convince to the Real Madrid to yield them definitively to Martin Odegaard. By what if Florentino wants of return to the Norwegian midfield, Laporta could negotiate with the combined of the "gunners" the traspaso of the Brazilian.
