There have been many rumors and speculations regarding Coutinho’s return to the Premier League and several English clubs, including
Aston Villa, have shown interest in the talented playmaker.
Reflecting on the speculations regarding Coutinho’s next destination, Villa boss Steven Gerrard said:
"Sixty-three caps for Brazil, a serial winner, was incredible at Liverpool, so I can understand why he's linked to a lot of football clubs.
"I can understand why a lot of supporters up and down the country are speaking about him. I don't think you get a nickname as a magician if you're not a special footballer, so he's someone I have an incredible amount of respect for.
"But I don't want to add to any speculation, because he belongs to Barcelona."
