Coutinho Wins the battle and remains a year more in the Barça

It is official, Philippe Coutinho will remain a season more in the FC Barcelona. Ronald Koeman and the technical office have taken the final decision to give him a new opportunity and intentar recover to the player for the Barcelona team. The Barça tried to find him a destination, but went practically impossible because of the injury of the Brazilian, and has not had shop window in the parties of pre-season to show that it was in good conditions.

To Can Barça has not arrived any offer in conditions by the Brazilian. East was one of the reasons whereby has decided that it continue forming part of the Barcelona staff of face to the next season. Another of the reasons that carried to the taking of decision was the confidence of the technician in the footballer.

Even, when Coutinho arrived to the team in the past market of summer, Koeman already had ensured that wanted that it remained . The mediocampista started well this new stage with the Dutch, but his performance was going down with the step of the parties until it arrived the injury, that has kept it moved away of the terrains of game by a prolonged time.

Koeman Explains again with him in front of the circumstances in which it finds the team, and when being recovered already of this injury. One of the reasons that always suggested to justify that Coutinho did not surrender to good level was the presence of Lionel Messi, that played in his same position and was intocable. After the exit of the Argentinian star, the position will remain free… although desatará the competition due to the fact that Antoine Griezmann and Memphis Depay also act in this demarcation.

The last argument presented on the table to endorse the continuity of the Brazilian was the fault of effective in the centre of the field. The Barça wanted to do with the services of Wijnaldum, but was not possible his contracting. With a minimum margin of cost there are not other midfield players that can reinforce to the Barcelona team.
