Barcelona are reportedly in talks with Aston Villa regarding a move that would see Philippe Coutinho spend the rest of the season on loan at Villa Park.
The Catalans are eager to get players off the wage bill, in order to register Ferran Torres, and it seems Coutinho could be one player who departs in January.
The Brazilian has long been linked with an exit but it seems he has finally been convinced he may be better off leaving Barcelona if he wants to play regularly, particularly with World 2022 Cup not too far away now.
