He cost 90 million and was the new Messi, today he's looking for a job and nobody wants him

Another incredible case that adds to the list of players who drastically dropped their level and were never able to recover it. Who we will talk about here today was one of the most anticipated players by the fans of FC Barcelona and one of those who were intended as a before and after in the team. He was paid 90 million euros and he was never able to show what he was made of; His time at the culé club ended up being a failure.

Philippe Coutinho arrived at FC Barcelona from Liverpool and in the condition of one of the best players on the planet at that time. It is seen that he could not with so much expectation on his back and never managed to settle, the culé public was expecting the eventual explosion of the Brazilian, but that moment never came. First he was loaned to Bayern Munich, where he won the Champions League being mostly a substitute, then he returned to Barca and as they continued without showing any answers they sent him on loan to Aston Villa.

After one season, Aston Villa chose to execute the player's purchase option for 20 million euros. As in Barcelona, he began to lose prominence until reaching the current stage, in which with a token valued at 10 million euros, the English club will seek to sell him after informing him that he would not be taken into account for next season.

The sale of it greatly benefits Barcelona

When FC Barcelona sold Coutinho to Aston Villa, 50% of the profits were reserved for a future sale. That is to say, if today the player leaves the English club for 10 million euros, Barcelona would receive 5 million net. That is why from Barcelona they are waiting for what happens with the Brazilian, since it could give them an economic boost that would do them good.
