Barcelona midfielder Philippe Coutinho has reportedly decided that he does not want to join Manchester United.

Coutinho has previously represented Liverpool, but there has been persistent speculation regarding the Brazilian and a potential switch to their rivals United.

According to Goal.com, Barcelona may be ready to entertain offers, with the playmaker having failed to establish himself in Ernesto Valverde's starting lineup on a regular basis.

However, the report adds that the 26-year-old would prefer not to return to the Premier League due to his family having previously failed to settle in England.

Coutinho only joined the Catalan giants at the start of 2018, since which total of 19 goals have been scored from 44 starts and 19 substitute outings in all competitions.
