Liverpool set to take Nike to court

Liverpool are all set to take Nike, Barcelona’s kit manufacturer, to court.

This comes after the sports company announced the arrival of Philipe Coutinho from Liverpool even before the winter transfer had opened.

The Reds were very unhappy with the way Nike had ‘announced’ Coutinho and will now take legal action.

It is also believed that Liverpool will raise their asking price beyond the £115m which the Reds had rejected in the summer. There is very little that La Liga giants can do about it.

To make things worse, Nike has refused to make any comments on the error. There is also no confirmation whether the page was hacked or not.

As things stand, Coutinho is still a Liverpool player after the Reds refused to sell the Brazilian. Liverpool turned down 3 bids made by the Spanish giants in the summer.
