Philippe Coutinho has penned an emotional farewell message to Liverpool's fans and staff following his £146m move to Barcelona.

The 25-year-old completed his mega-money switch to the Camp Nou yesterday, signing a five-and-a-half-year deal with the Spanish giants to become the second-most expensive player in football history.

Coutinho spent five years at Liverpool following his £8.5m move from Inter Milan in 2013, scoring 54 goals in 201 appearances for the club across all competitions, and now he has paid tribute to his memorable time at Anfield.

Coutinho could make his Barca debut in Thursday's Copa del Rey clash with Celta Vigo.
