Liverpool have earned an extra £4.3million after a clause in Philippe Coutinho’s Barcelona contract was triggered, report the Liverpool Echo.
Coutinho returned to Anfield for the first time since his exit on Tuesday night, but it ended up being a nightmare for him.
The Brazilian made no impact against his former club, as a remarkable comeback took place and Liverpool reached the Champions League final at Barcelona’s expense.
It has been revealed that the Reds have received £4.3million (€5m) because Ernesto Valverde’s side reached the quarter-finals of the competition this season.
It is a deal that is increasingly looking like a superb one from a Liverpool perspective, having sold Coutinho for £142million in January 2018.
The 26-year-old has been a flop at the Nou Camp, while the likes of Virgil van Dijk, Alisson and Fabinho have arrived at Anfield since he departed.
Coutinho himself may now have a tinge of regret about leaving Liverpool, considering their current situation.
