10 players who could be playing their last Premier League season

#5 Philippe Coutinho

Coutinho in action for Liverpool against Chelsea

There is certainly an ancient connect between Brazilians and Barcelona. Starting from Romario to Ronaldinho to the most recent Neymar and even Paulinho, there is always a Brazilian footballer to weave his magic for the Catalan club. Could it be Coutinho's turn to do the honours?

This was the most talked about transfer in the summer. Barcelona had put an offer on the table, but Liverpool refused to let the player go. Coutinho's form had taken a beating in the initial part of the campaign, but of late, the midfielder has found his magical touch.

Although the transfer window is still a month away, the rumours are beginning to rise. Barcelona definitely needs a creative midfielder and have set their eyes on him, therefore it only seems more likely that he is on his way out.

Another factor that could play a key role is Liverpool finding their winning contributions coming from elsewhere. Coutinho has been involved in very few contributions this season when compared to last year.

Mo Salah & Co. are proving they can do just fine without the Brazilian. Another point to consider is the transfer requested by Coutinho in the summer. Liverpool definitely wouldn't want a 'Chelsea-Diego Costa' like situation.
