# Liverpool: Fans react as transfer report claims Philippe Coutinho was offered to Jurgen Klopp

**Loads of Liverpool fans have been reacting to a shock transfer rumour, as reports claim the Reds have been offered the chance to re-sign Philippe Coutinho.**

According to [El Desmarque](https://twitter.com/LFCTransferRoom/status/1221123007583866881), Bayern Munich have told Barcelona they will not sign Coutinho permanently after his loan spell in Germany ends. Because of this, they claim the Catalan giants have offered Jurgen Klopp the chance to bring the Brazil international back to Anfield for €108m (£91.1m).

However, the report claims the Reds boss has rejected the offer, because he believes he could get Napoli midfielder Fabian Ruiz for that price or even lower, a player who he prefers to Coutinho.

Having left Merseyside back in 2018, the 27 year-old has managed [six goals and six assists](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/80767/History/Philippe-Coutinho) in 17 Bundesliga showings this campaign, after grabbing only [five goals](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/80767/History/Philippe-Coutinho) in La Liga last season.

Check out some of the best Twitter reactions down below, where plenty of Reds are having their say on their former superstar…
