Former Barcelona and Brazil superstar Ronaldinho has said that Liverpool’s Philippe Coutinho would be a good fit for the Catalan giants.
Ronaldinho was quoted in the Daily Mail, where he said:
“[Coutinho] has had a fantastic season – he has been one of the best midfield players in Europe – and when you think he has been playing in a team that has not been performing well that is an even bigger achievement.“
Liverpool fans have become all-too-used to seeing top players such as Xabi Alonso, Javier Mascherano and Luis Suarez move on to the top teams in Spain, and the thought of Philippe Coutinho doing the same in the future isn’t beyond the realms of probability.
The former Champions Leauge and World Cup winner Ronaldinho knows a lot about what it takes to succeed at the current La Liga champions, and he thinks his Brazilian compatriot would do well if he ever made the switch
“I can’t speak for him and I can’t speak for Barcelona – but I know what Barcelona look for in a player and he has all those qualities. After all those years at the club Xavi has left and Iniestia is now in his 30’s – they will need to address that. That is why I think Barcelona and Coutinho would be the perfect fit. Playing with great players makes you better, I know that. Not only would he win trophies with Barcelona, but playing with Neymar, Messi, Suarez, Iniesta, is going to make him a better player.“
