Minders for Liverpool ace Philippe Coutinho have assured Barcelona they can sign the Brazilian in January.

While on Merseyside it is claimed Liverpool will not listen to offers for the midfielder, Sport insists a deal for the winter market can be done.

Agents and family members of Coutinho have spent time in Boston holding meetings with Liverpool owners FSG about the situation.

FSG are refusing to budge from their €150m assessment, but Coutinho's camp insist they've found a compromise with the Reds over the makeup of the fee.

Liverpool are now willing to accept a bid involving an upfront payment and room for a greater cash bonus to help the deal over the line.

Barca are now ready to reopen negotiations, but have been warned Liverpool won't give them exclusivity with PSG also maintaining contact.
