  • Echoing the words of his teammate Ivan Rakitic, Brazilian midfielder Philippe Coutinho has said Neymar would be welcomed back with open arms at Barcelona if he decides to return.

    Neymar left the Catalan giants last summer for a record move to Paris Saint-Germain, who forked out €222 million on Coutinho’s fellow Brazilian. But rumours have surfaced claiming the forward is already regretting his decision.

    Speaking at the presentation of the Mediterranean International Cup, compatriot Coutinho, who has since replaced Neymar at Camp Nou, said: “With Neymar, that’s life, but I have the same feelings as Rakitic.

    “He is a great player. I play with him for the international team and it is a real privilege. It would be great if he came back and of course we would open the door to that.”
