Arsenal want to sign Philippe Coutinho on loan?

Arsenal are reportedly keen on striking a deal with Barcelona to bring Philippe Coutinho to the Emirates on loan this summer.

Arsenal have reportedly launched an approach to sign Philippe Coutinho on loan from Barcelona this summer.

The Brazilian, who left the Premier League for Barcelona just last year, has struggled to make an impact under manager Ernesto Valverde, claiming just five league goals during a difficult 2018-19 campaign.

Barcelona are open to selling Coutinho this summer for a fee of £110m but have expressed concerns at the lack of interest from Premier League clubs in striking a permanent deal for the attacking midfielder.

According to The Mirror, Arsenal have expressed an interest in taking Coutinho on loan, which would cost the club £27m.

The Gunners are unlikely to strike any further permanent deals this summer after exhausting their transfer funds by signing Nicolas Pepe for £72m.

Barcelona officials will meet with Arsenal to thrash out a deal when the two clubs meet at Camp Nou in the Joan Gamper Trophy on Sunday.
