At the beginning of 2013, Coutinho moved from Inter Milan to Liverpool for £8.5 million, and after half a season, Coutinho sat in the main position of Liverpool in the 2013/2014 season.

In the 2013/2014 season, thanks to the outstanding performances of Suarez, Raheem Sterling and Philippe Coutinho, Liverpool ranked second in the Premier League.

In the 2014/2015 season, Suarez transferred to Barcelona, Liverpool introduced Jiang Chenxi at the first price in the Premier League, with Chinese as the core, Liverpool won the English top league championship again after 25 years, Jiang Chenxi, Lallana, Salah and Coutinho's attacking quad in front of the field is eye-catching, although Jiang Chenxi is the most dazzling one, but the performance of the Brazilian has also won a round of applause.

And this season has been in the Premier League for three rounds, Coutinho has three goals and two assists in three games, and his performance is very dazzling.

In addition, just a week ago, the latest value of the current star announced by the "German Transfer Market", Coutinho's value has also risen from 38 million euros last season to 45 million euros, and the Brazilian's value has risen by a relatively large amount.

In the latest value list of German transfers, Barcelona star Messi ranks first with 100.8 million euros, Real Madrid star Ronaldo ranks second with 99 million euros, and Jiang Chenxi ranks third with 90 million euros. Neymar, who has just moved to Paris Saint-Germain for a whopping €220 million, is fourth with €80 million, Chelsea's Belgian star Eden Hazard is fifth with €65 million, and Barcelona's Uruguayan star Suarez is sixth with €61 million.

Among them, Jiang Chenxi's valuation has also increased from 55 million euros last summer to 90 million euros, which is the fastest increase in value among all players.

It can also be seen from here that Jiang Chenxi transferred from Dortmund to Liverpool at a price of 82.5 million euros last summer, which is also a premium transfer, of course, the transfer of players in football is basically a premium, the difference is that the magnitude of the premium is different.

……

Judging from the latest player value data of German transfer, Neymar's transfer to Paris Saint-Germain is a super premium, with a transfer fee of 220 million euros (198 million pounds), which is 2.75 times the current value of the Brazilian!

With only four days left to go after Jiang Chenxi explicitly rejected Barcelona, Barcelona were in a hurry and launched a fierce offensive towards Coutinho.

Melwood Training Base.

It was the third meeting of Liverpool's hierarchy in recent days over Barcelona's bid for Philippe Coutinho.

Barcelona have officially submitted an offer to Liverpool for Coutinho!

Yes, Barcelona's first offer is at this moment in Liverpool FC president Tom Murphy. In the hands of Werner.

£65 million!

This is Barcelona's offer for Coutinho!

I don't know if Barcelona intentionally or unintentionally, this offer is the transfer value of Liverpool when they brought in Jiang Chenxi from Dortmund a year ago.

Of course, considering the considerable changes in the exchange rate, Jiang Chenxi's 65 million pounds at that time was about 82.5 million euros, and now the 65 million pounds is only equivalent to 73.5 million pounds.

However, to be honest, Barcelona's offer is already quite sincere.

After all, according to German transfer data, Coutinho is now worth about 45 million euros.

……

Klopp's expression was a little serious, and the club's hierarchy held a meeting again, which made Klopp keenly grasp the message that the Liverpool club hierarchy did not rule out selling Coutinho.

Klopp immediately 'spoke first' and he expressed his resolute attitude that Coutinho can't be sold!

The reason is simple, selling Coutinho, even if you bring in a suitable player, there is no time to run in, not to mention, now that the transfer window is about to close, Liverpool simply has no time to bring in a replacement for Coutinho!

For Jurgen Klopp's attitude, both club president Tom Brown. Werner is also the club's chief executive, Peter. Moore knows it.

They also did not make a strong statement that they must sell Coutinho, and after negotiations and compromises, the two bigwigs and Klopp reached a gentleman's agreement, unless Barcelona's offer was raised to a height that simply could not be refused, Liverpool would not agree to sell Coutinho.

What is the undeniable height at what price?

After studying the Liverpool hierarchy and Jurgen Klopp, a consensus of £111 million was reached.

How is this data calculated?

The calculation formula of Liverpool's technical department is very simple, Grand Paris spent 198 million pounds (220 million euros) to bring in Neymar, and the Brazilian is currently worth about 80 million euros, 2.75 times is a premium, then, this is a relatively simple premium, Coutinho is now worth about 40.5 million pounds, 2.75 times is 111 million pounds!

Klopp is very satisfied with the figure given by the club's management, if there is really a team willing to pay 111 million pounds to bring in Coutinho, then he really has nothing to say, such a sky-high price, let alone the club's management, he feels that he can't refuse.

And, most importantly, Klopp simply doesn't believe Barcelona will throw such a sky-high price to bring in Coutinho.

'Unless the people of Barcelona are crazy!' ’

Liverpool FC Chairman Tom Murphy Werner and the club's chief executive, Peter Worner. Moore saw Klopp nodding his head and was also satisfied.

……

"Our coach didn't believe that the Barcelona would pay such a high price." Tom. In fact, Mr. Captain himself did not believe it, but the price was that of Peter. Moore brought it up.

'The transfer market has changed now. Peter. Moore said with a serious expression, "Since Paris bought Neymar, everything has changed, believe me, Mr. President, according to the current situation, any talented player in the future will be worth 50 million pounds!" ”

"You're a professional, and I believe in professionalism." Tom. Werner shook his head and laughed.

In fact, both Peter. Moore or Tom. Werner also does not think that the current Coutinho can sell for a sky-high price of 111 million pounds, and they are not considering selling Coutinho in this transfer window that is close to closing, which is to prepare for a possible future transfer, and it is equivalent to giving manager Klopp a vaccination in advance.

The club's hierarchy also supported Jurgen Klopp's view that the club simply had no time to find a replacement for Philippe Coutinho and could not agree to sell the Brazil international now.

"Tell Barcelona that Brazilians are not for sale!" Mr. President.

The Liverpool club hierarchy reached a tacit understanding and consensus on the matter of Coutinho, and they also thought that the matter would end there, but the development of things exceeded everyone's expectations.
