Respected Pundit Guillem Balague Claims Coutinho Will Try 'Whatever it Takes' to Join Barcelona

Last Friday mass hysteria took hold regarding Philippe Coutinho, with the Brazilian issuing a formal transfer request on the eve of Liverpool's new Premier League campaign, despite it being announced, via a statement on the club's website, that Coutinho would not be sold this summer.

Coutinho missed Liverpool's league opened against Watford with a back injury, although the 25-year-old has still reported to Melwood for training every day.

Amidst all the speculation surrounding Philippe Coutinho as he tries to push through a highly coveted move to Barcelona, Spanish Sky Sports pundit Guillem Balague has taken to Twitter offering an update to the ongoing situation.
