Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp to hold talks with Philippe Coutinho after £72m Barcelona bid

 JURGEN KLOPP will reportedly hold face-to-face talks with Philippe Coutinho to tell him he cannot leave Liverpool for Barcelona. 

 

“I’m not surprised that any club is interested in players, if it is like this.

"A few people obviously see that Liverpool has a few good players. That’s how it is. But a very important message, maybe — we are not a selling club. 

"We believe in working together, we believe in development together. We want to work together, we want to make the next step together and for this we need to stay together. That’s how it is." 

The reports adds the Reds are expecting Coutinho to remain at the club for a minimum of two years with his deal set to run until 2022. 

But there is likely to be renewed interest in him following next year's World Cup in Russia.
