Everton will sign Philippe Coutinho from Barcelona in the summer transfer window, according to The Sun.
It has been reported by the British tabloid that Everton will pay Barcelona £35 million as transfer fee for the former Liverpool attacking midfielder.
The Toffees are reportedly already house-hunting for the Brazil international, who can also operate as a winger.
Good signing for Everton?
Everton fans will know all about Coutinho from his time at Liverpool where he was very successful.
The Brazil international attacking midfielder wowed the Premier League fans and did well under Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp.
Klopp described the 28-year-old as “world class” in 2017, as quoted in SportsMole, and the former Inter Milan man would make Everton better.
Coutinho has had injury problems this season, but he is expected to recover fully, and given his quality and class and experience in the Premier League, he would be able to make an immediate impact at Carlo Ancelotti’s side.
However, given that Coutinho is a former Liverpool player and was successful at Anfield, it will be interesting to see how the Reds’ fans react if he does move to Everton.
