Coutinho transfer news arsenal
A popular topic!
Philippe Coutinho has been linked with a move to Arsenal in the past, but there hasn't been any recent transfer news suggesting he's close to joining the Gunners. Here's a brief summary of the situation:
- In 2018, Coutinho was linked with a move to Arsenal, but he ultimately joined Barcelona from Liverpool for a then-world record transfer fee of £142 million.
- Since then, Coutinho has struggled to establish himself as a regular starter at Barcelona, making only 22 appearances in all competitions last season.
- In the summer of 2020, there were reports that Arsenal were interested in signing Coutinho, but nothing materialized.
- In recent months, Coutinho has been linked with a move away from Barcelona, with clubs like Bayern Munich, Juventus, and Paris Saint-Germain reportedly interested in signing him.
- However, there hasn't been any concrete transfer news suggesting Coutinho is close to joining Arsenal.
It's worth noting that Arsenal have been linked with several other attacking midfielders and wingers in recent transfer windows, including Houssem Aouar, Thomas Partey, and Willian. While Coutinho would undoubtedly be a significant signing for the Gunners, it's unclear whether they're still interested in pursuing a deal for him.
