Former Liverpool skipper Steven Gerrard has revealed his concerns that Reds star Philippe Coutinho could be stolen away from Anfield by Barcelona or Real Madrid.
Gerrard is currently writing his new book, My Story, serialised by the Daily Mail, and has told of how Luis Suarez—sold to Barcelona in the summer of 2014—urged the ex-England captain to “look after” Coutinho. According to Gerrard, Suarez rated the Brazilian “our most special young talent."
But Gerrard also expressed concern that the samba boy could follow Suarez out of Merseyside to one of the top teams in world football.
"Many Liverpool fans already regard him as there main man. He has just signed a new deal and he and his wife who are a lovely couple seems settled in Liverpool.
But I also know that the Spanish giants, Barcelona and Real Madrid, will come looking for Coutinho in a few years to come, just like they did with Luis.
And that’s when it will get tricky for Liverpool because the lure to go to one of those two clubs is so strong for any South American or Spanish player. Until that happens, Liverpool should really treasure Philippe Coutinho"
