Nobody expected that Lionel Messi would be leaving Barcelona after a 21 years professional career. Then, several reports claim that the LaLiga giant offered the legend no.10 shirt to Philippe Coutinho.
Disaster already happened inside Catalan in the past two years. Just imagine, this club has a financial crisis with debt around €1,3 billion. This problem came from the effect of Covid-19 outbreak.
Although they believe everything is gonna be fine after the back of president club, Joan Laporta, Barcelona has another issue regarding their maximum salary. Unfortunately, Barca is unable to renew Lionel Messi's contract because it breaks LaLiga rules.
Despite the fact La Pulga already agreed to cut 50 percent of his salary, it's still not enough. Ronald Koeman's side must end the beautiful relationship with the best player on the planet.
It's nigh on impossible for Catalan to replace the symbol of their best player and it is believed they will retire jersey No.10. However, Mundo Deportivo claims that the jersey will be worn by someone else.
The report stated that Coutinho will be the next number 10 in squad Koeman. It comes from the fact that Ronald Koeman still has faith in the Brazilian playmaker, even though the performance seems quite bad.
Following his arrival with around €166 million in January 2018, ex Liverpool star never got a chance to impress all fans. He had been linked with a move away from Camp Nou because it's lack of contribution.
But, of course, everything is gonna change after the post-Lionel Messi era. Philippe Coutinho is believed to become the new hope of Barcelona in dominating LaLiga.
