Philippe Coutinho agent: “He has a desire to come back to the Premier League”

Philippe Coutinho’s agent has made clear the Brazilian is keen on a return to the English Premier League, although he did not specify a timetable.

“He has a desire to come back to the Premier League at some point,” superagent Kia Joorabchian said.

“It may not happen this year, it may happen this year - we don’t know. We really have not discussed anything for now.”

The 27-year-old is on loan to Bayern Munich from Barcelona, having previously played at Liverpool.

“It’s up to Bayern Munich whether or not they want to extend the loan,” he said.
