Philippe Coutinho may still receive a Champions League winners medal if Liverpool win the competition for a sixth time.
Liverpool stunned the footballing world with two dazzling performances across both legs against Manchester City in the quarter-finals.
Jurgen Klopp’s men progressed into Friday’s semi-final draw after thumping the Premier League leaders 5-1 on aggregate.
Many feared how Liverpool would cope without Coutinho when he moved on from Merseyside, but the Reds have progressed to the final four without him after he left k in January for Barcelona, for a world-record £142m after months of speculation.
The Brazilian had to watch from the stands as his new side were eliminated from the Champions League at the hands of Roma.
UEFA hand out 40 medals to the winners and it’s up to the club to decide who they are given to.
Coutinho played five matches for Jurgen Klopp’s side in the group stages and contributed with five goals.
It’s up to Liverpool to decide if Coutinho’s group stage contribution was worthy of a medal, if the Reds do add to their trophy cabinet.
The likes of Marko Grujic (on loan at Cardiff) and Daniel Sturridge (on loan at West Brom) are also eligible for medals if the Reds win the competition.
