Philippe Coutinho is one of the big problems that has the FC Barcelona in these moments. The Brazilian has one of the highest wages of the staff and, for now, no has recessed it to him. The mediapunta is winning little more than 10 million annual euros, a quantity that seeing his performance and role in the team is an authentic atrocity that the club can not sustain long more.

Besides, it is necessary to take into account this clause of the 100 parties of which so much has spoken these last months. Purportedly, when the player arrive to the 100 meetings like culé, the Barcelona club will have to pay him 20 million euros more to the Liverpool by his signing. They would be the last 20 that they would have to pay the Catalans of the 40 by aims that added to the 120 fixed that pactaron with the 'reds'.

Up to now, the '14' has played 96 crashes with the Barcelona since it arrived in January of 2018. It carried 90 until this campaign, but this course Ronald Koeman already has given him six meetings, by what is to alone four of this figure that would do him pay to the Barcelona 20 'kilos' more. Although this is not 100% confirmed, to be true would be a 'stick' very hard for the ones of the City Condal, that already have sufficient economic problems without this cost.

It is by all this by what the Barça seems that it goes to do all what was in his hand so that the one of Rio de Janeiro go in January. The journalist Eduardo Inda commented in the morning of this Tuesday that Joan Laporta will do all what can so that Cou leave the team in the next wintry market. The president knows that recess the mass salarial of the entity keeps on being prioritario and undo of the mediapunta would be key in this sense.

It will be necessary to see if 'Jan' achieves the difficult task to give exit to Coutinho, that up to now has been a hard load for the picture barcelonista. The Newcastle could be the solution to this bad, since the 'urracas' have turned into the richest team of the Premier League after the purchase of the club by part of a bottom of Saudi investments. The new owners want to do signings of level in January and the Brazilian seems to be between his aims.

Also it will try give exit to Umtiti

On the other hand, another of the footballers that the Barcelona will try to plant in January will be Samuel Umtiti, that does not explain neither for the club neither for Koeman. After trying that it went out in summer without luck, the patience of the culés with the French has finish . The Barcelona are fed up to follow paying him a wage so that it do not go out of the bench and therefore the idea is that it leave in what it open the market of winter. The Catalans pretend to give him gone out to save his wage and follow of this form with the politics of cuts marked to date.
