Sky Sports: Coutinho hands in Liverpool an official transfer request
Sky Sports in England has stated the Brazilian has informed the club of his intentions and wishes to leave Anfield, although these reports are questioned by other journalists.
James Pearce of the Liverpool Echo and Goal.com have responded that their sources at the Merseyside club insist they are unaware of such a request.
The news comes in the wake of a statement from Liverpool earlier on Friday that the club would not contemplate a sale for the 25-year-old this summer.
“We wish to offer clarity as regards our position on a possible transfer of Philippe Coutinho,” read the Liverpool statement.
“The club’s definitive stance is that no offers for Philippe will be considered and he will remain a member of Liverpool Football Club when the summer window closes.”
