Barcelona are keen to part ways with Philippe Coutinho and Jean-Clair Todibo as soon as possible in order to balance their books, according to .
Coutinho has reportedly been an object of interest for several Premier League clubs, and his return to the English top flight is still a possibility. Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United are all keen on his services, but not one of those clubs wants a permanent transfer, preferring a loan deal instead, even though Barcelona would now be willing to let him go for as little as €70 million. The Brazilian s wages, reportedly amounting to €250,000 per week, are also an issue. While Bayern Munich, who have had him on loan for 2019/20, were willing to pay that, other clubs are not so generous.
As for the young centre-back, his loan at Schalke 04 expires soon. Barcelona demand €25m, but Everton have reached a loose agreement with the Spanish champions by offering to pay €20m plus €5m in potential add-ons. However, the player is waiting to see if a better option than Everton would present itself.
