Liverpool reject second £90m Barcelona bid, Brazilian star unlikely to partner Arda Turan next season

Liverpool have rejected a second offer from Barcelona for Philippe Coutinho according to the Telegraph.

Per the source, Barcelona made a second bid worth £90 million for the Brazil international.

The Reds snubbed the offer, making it clear yet again that Coutinho is not for sale.

The report claims that Coutinho wants to join Barcelona but Liverpool are not prepared to release him this summer.

The Reds have no intention on entering talks with the La Liga giants or selling him at any price.

Barcelona are keen to find a replacement for Neymar who recently joined PSG for a world record transfer fee.

Coutinho would have joined Arda Turan at Barcelona had he joined but would not have necessarily competed directly for a place with the Turkey star.

The 24-year-old can play out wide as Neymar did but he is being tipped as a long term replacement for Iniesta.

Turan meanwhile can also play in both positions but looked at his best playing on the left wing, forming an attacking trio with Messi and Luis Suarez.
