Kia reveals Barcelona Coutinho plans after Segura meeting

The agent of Philippe Coutinho insists Barcelon want to keep the midfielder.

The forward is currently at the Copa America in Brazil and has been linked with a Camp Nou exit after failing to meet expectations.

Coutinho could be used as a makeweight in an attempt to bring Neymar back to Barcelona from Paris Saint-Germain, but the player's agent has claimed that's not the case.

"We haven't had any contact with PSG," Kia Joorabchian told Radio Montecarlo.

Joorabchian also revealed he'd spoken to GM Pep Segura at Barcelona and that he has been told a summer sale isn't being planned for his client.
