FC Bayern have confirmed they have reached an agreement in principle with Barcelona for the transfer of Philippe Coutinho on a one year loan with an option to buy.
Coutinho is expected in the next few days in Munich to clarify final details and to complete the medical check.
According to Diario Sport, Bayern would pay the player's salary for about 12 million euros, the club also pay about 20 million euros for the loan and they have remained a purchase option for 120 million euros.
The Brazilian had been heavily linked with a move away from Barcelona this summer, with Bayern thought to be seriously interested as it searches for replacements for both Franck Ribery and Arjen Robben.
