Philippe Coutinho is leaving Europe and will sign with Qatar's Al Duhail. The Brazilian midfielder is joining the Qatari club on loan after not getting many opportunities with Aston Villa.

Coutinho's future has gone from promising to rather lackluster in recent years. Since his move to FC Barcelona, the Rio native was never able to establish himself in Spain, leading to a loan spell at Bayern Munich where, despite winning the Champions League, he wasn't a regular starter.

Philippe Coutinho also became Barcelona's most expensive signing in that moment and Liverpool's most expensive record sale. In 2018, Barcelona paid $128 million for the Brazilian international.

After three seasons with The Villans, the English club was actively looking for an exit for Coutinho. Following various rumors, Fabrizio Romano confirmed his transfer today, and this is expected to be his salary:

Coutinho's Salary in Qatar:

According to outlets like One Football, Philippe Coutinho's salary in Qatar could be up to $155,000 per week. It's worth noting that the Qatari club will cover his entire salary for this season.
