Philippe Coutinho chooses Barcelona jersey number
With reports heating up about Liverpool star Philippe Coutinho’s potential move to Barcelona, a report in Spain claims that he has already chosen the number he would wish to wear at the back of his jersey.
A report in Diario Gol claims that the 25-year-old, who has been relentlessly approached by Barcelona even after three failed bids, has decided on a number, which he can claim only with the departure of another star at the Camp Nou.

The Spanish publication states that Coutinho prefers wearing No.7 on his back, just like he did during his days at Inter Milan.
However, he can stake claim on the number only if Arda Turan decides to make a move and leave the club. Turan, who hasn’t started this season for the La Liga giants, has been linked with a move to Everton, and the Turktur might be on his way out soon.
