Barcelona are reportedly prepared to sell Philippe Coutinho for just £20m as they look to free up funds to retain the services of Lionel Messi.

Barcelona are reportedly prepared to accept offers in the region of £20m for out-of-favour midfielder Philippe Coutinho.

Despite leaving Liverpool for £142m in January 2018, Coutinho has failed to impress at Camp Nou, putting the player in a position where he is being effectively forced out of the Spanish club.

Club officials are eager to get the 29-year-old off their wage bill, a scenario hampered by the Brazilian being sidelined with a knee injury since December.

At a time when Barcelona need to free up funds to retain the services of Lionel Messi, Football Espana claims that a bid of £20m would be accepted this summer.

Barcelona have already allowed Francisco Trincao to move to Wolverhampton Wanderers on loan, while Samuel Umtiti and Miralem Pjanic have been offered free transfers.

AC Milan have allegedly joined a number of Premier League clubs in monitoring the situation. body check tags ::
