To Philippe Coutinho are not him going out the things too well since it decided to abandon the Liverpool to test luck in the FC Barcelona. His stage in the Camp Nou, that lasted a year and half, began very well by his big performance but, little by little, his flame went turning off and so much the club culé like the mediapunta Brazilian had to arrive to an agreement to separate his ways.

The result was that, in the last market of signings​ estival, the midfield player carioca finish in the Bayern of Munich by means of a cession in which the Bavarians paid eight millions and half of euros to the Barcelona, in addition to the index card of the player and the obtaining of an option of purchase no compulsory by value of 120 million euros, a slightly inferior quantity that the one who the Barça finish paying to the Liverpool.

The start of Coutinho in the Bayern of Munich, with Niko Kovac in the bench, was irregular, but did not take in winning the place and turn into an important player in the diagrams of the technician. However, the bad results involved a change in the bench and, since interim Hans-Dieter Flick relieved to the previous trainer, the Brazilian has lost his condition to title.

I felt me very comfortable from the first moment, am 100% safe that I took the correct decision", ensured the ex culé.

From the change of trainer, Coutinho only has been headline in two of the five parties contested, a significant fact. In total, in the present season, has contested a total of 18 meetings with the group germano, in which it has annotated three goals and has delivered five assistances. The carioca has to improve so much in numbers as in feelings.
