Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher says Phillipe Coutinho could still end up at Barcelona despite signing a new 5-year contract with the club.
The Reds announced the ‘good news’ yesterday and ensured that every journalist knew that there was “no release clause”. But Carragher’s having none of it.
A realist, like ourselves, the former Liverpool player said if Barcelona came knocking, he’ll be gone regardless.

Carragher said: “We’ve had plenty of players in the past Liverpool who have signed big contracts then moved on.
“If Coutinho wasn’t happy he wouldn’t sign a contract.
“We hear there’s no release clause which again doesn’t mean everything.
“Liverpool are no different to every other club in world football besides two. If Barcelona or Real Madrid come for one of your players and pay what you want, they’re going, because 99 per cent of players want to play for those two clubs.
“If that happens, it means, if they’re unbelievable for Liverpool, then you have to thank him, as we did with Luis Suarez.”
