France’s L’Equipe are reporting Philippe Coutinho ‘should’ be joining Arsenal on loan for the coming season.
Arsenal have been linked with the Barcelona player in recent days but it was a case of rumour laundering.
It had been claimed on social media that Catalan newspaper Sport linked Coutinho with a move to the Gunners, however they never actually mentioned Arsenal once in their article on his potential move to England.
It was all quite confusing.
These latest claims come from France, which presents the question of why they’d know. It’s worth noting the Brazilian’s agent Kia Joorabchian recently spoke to the French media about his frustration with how Barcelona are handling his client.
There had been claims Coutinho was being offered to PSG as part of a deal for Neymar.
