Coutinho to Newcastle 'seriously discussed' (reliability: 4 stars)

Philippe Coutinho's potential move to Newcastle is being 'seriously discussed', according to Bild's Christian Falk.

Falk is known as a reporter who also has certain knowledge about former Bayern Munich players and coaches. Coutinho was on loan at Bayern in the 2019/20 season.

As a reminder, Newcastle United have been taken over by a Saudi-led group. It's expected that the club could soon spend over 100 million euros on transfers.

Philippe Coutinho has made 6 appearances for Barcelona this season so far, recording no goal contributions.
