'I wanted to play in Spain' - Coutinho makes decision on future

  /  autty

Philippe Coutinho has dealt a blow to Europe’s top clubs, insisting he has no plans to quit to Spain.

The Barcelona star has been linked with a move to PSG, Manchester United and Chelsea this summer.

Coutinho said: “This is my second season here. I have won titles but I am always an ambitious and demanding player. So, I want more and more. But I’m happy. I wanted to play in Spain and I’m at the best club in Spain.”

Coutinho was even more clear when asked if a trip to Old Trafford next week could rekindle his love of playing in England again in future.

Manchester United host Barcelona in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final next Wednesday.

“My head is exclusively in Barcelona,” Coutinho insisted. “Returning to England now does not fit into my plans.”
