Liverpool fans on Twitter have been pleading with the club to not sign Philippe Coutinho again.
This comes after Liverpool fan Twitter account @AnfieldEdition shared a post on their page relaying information from Spanish outlet Sport that the Merseyside club are “interested” in bringing their former man back to the club in the summer.
Should Liverpool sign Coutinho again this summer?
Yes, we need him
No, not again
This post then gathered a lot of replies from Liverpool fans who were adamant they would not like to see Coutinho in a Reds shirt next season.
Here’s a sample of Liverpool fans responding to the post:
Liverpool are one of the clubs interested in signing Philippe Coutinho this summer, with Bayern Munich unlikely to trigger the €120m clause needed to make a deal permanent. [Sport] pic.twitter.com/JGbWp2QEEc

The 27-year-old, who is currently valued at £63 million according to Transfermarkt, left the Merseyside club back in the 2018 January transfer window for a move to Spanish side Barcelona for a fee of £130.5 million. Coutinho is currently on a season-long loan deal at Bayern Munich, where he has registered nine goals and eight assists in 31 appearances in all competitions (per Transfermarkt).

Now that news has emerged that the Reds are interested in bringing Coutinho back to Anfield this summer, this news didn’t go down too well with some Liverpool fans.

What do we think?
With Liverpool having lost three of their last four matches in all competitions and failing to score a goal in any of those defeats, maybe Jurgen Klopp’s side could benefit from Coutinho’s creative attributes of passing, dribbling and holding on to the ball (per WhoScored).
