Barcelona management are reluctant to 'go to war' with Liverpool for Philippe Coutinho.

Just yesterday, Barca CEO Oscar Grau has already revealed that the Catalans are going to return to try to sign the Brazilian in the New Year.

He said, "We are ready to buy Coutinho in the winter market."

Marca reports the Spanish giants aren't willing to 'go to war' with Liverpool, with a club source saying that the deal would be 'very complicated'.

Grau stated on Wednesday they had room in their budget to bid big for Coutinho over the winter market.
