Liverpool Football Club is looking at the possibility of including Barcelona winger Gerard Deulofeu in a possible deal if they agree to sell Philippe Coutinho to the Catalans, claim reports.
Reports originating from Spain suggest that Liverpool boss Jürgen Klopp has put forward the idea of Deulofeu coming in the other direction despite him having previously being with Everton.

Deulofeu, who scored his first goal for Barcelona in their 2-0 win over Málaga at the weekend, only made the switch back to the Nou Camp in the summer after they activated a buy-back close for him.
Following the sale of Neymar and an injury to new signing Ousmane Dembélé, Deulofeu has found himself called upon by boss Ernesto Valverde but it is unlikely he would fight to retain him if he was a key factor in making a transfer for Coutinho happen.
It’s a speculative suggestion that probably won’t excite many Liverpool fans due to the 23-year-old’s wildly inconsistent performances.
