Paulinho admitted he was doing his best to bring Coutinho to Barca

When Barcelona drew Paulinho in the summer, not Philippe Coutinho, most of the fans of the club from contacts with livescore were disappointed and even made it to the Chinese midfielder, ironizing him that nothing was wrong with him. Paulinho, however, not only defeated them with his excellent autumn, but could also help significantly to the arrival of the Liverpool footballer. They are teammates in the Brazilian national team and often communicate. I speak very much about Barcelona, and now I have to start making him leave Liverpool, Paulinho admitted openly in an interview with Mundo Deportivo.


Philippe knows a lot about the city, because he was already there as a footballer of Espanyol, `the Catalonian midfielder continued. - I tell him about our base and the team. I explained how well they accepted me in the team. I`m even kidding that people are already looking for a house in Barcelona. I reveal to him basic things about life in Barcelona and other important details that would be beneficial to his family. Coutinho is aware that this is a very nice city that can offer everything to him and his relatives. He also knows that there are many great footballers here. One of them, Luis Suarez, is already waiting for him. They both understand perfectly. Luis is a man who always tries to help. Now we have to wait to see if there is a transfer in January. I advised Coutinho to be calm and not to think about the tension. I experienced the same during my stay in China. I told him to keep calm and think about the decision he would take. I think he will not regret having a chance to become part of Barca.


In the summer, Phil submitted a transfer request, but Liverpool did not accept any of the los coules.
