Grujic: Coutinho will be the best footballer in Germany by far

Marko Grujic has claimed Philippe Coutinho will be the ‘best footballer in Germany’ when he completes his loan move to Bayern Munich.

The German champions confirmed on Friday night that a deal has been agreed for Coutinho to join the club from Barcelona on a loan, with an option to buy.

While the 27-year-old is yet to be officially unveiled as a Bayern player, the transfer is expected to go through in the coming days, bringing an end to his disappointing spell in La Liga.
