🎥 First look at Philippe Coutinho in a Barça jersey | OneFootball

It is (finally) done! Philippe Coutinho is officially a Barcelona player.

After a lengthy transfer saga, Brazilian forward Coutinho has completed his move from Liverpool to La Liga giants, Barcelona.

This Monday (Coutinho Day) saw the 25-year-old etch his signature on his new contract with Barça, which was followed by a presentation at Camp Nou.

As Ernesto Valverde’s luck would have it, Coutinho’s medical revealed an injury that will keep his new star player out of action for at least 20 days.

“I’m happy to be here because of the history of the club and the players that have played here through history,” he said.

“I want to thank everybody for the great welcome, especially on social media.

“I hope to be able to play soon and live up to the high expectations.”

Coutinho, who will address the media later on Monday, has reportedly cost Barca a club-record fee of €160million, making him the third most expensive player in history, behind €222m compatriot Neymar and Kylian Mbappé, who will move to Paris Saint-Germain on a permanent deal from Monaco at the end of the season for €180m.

Happy Coutinho Day everyone!
