PROFILE
Philippe Coutinho joined Liverpool in January 2013 from Inter Milan and has become
one of the Premier League's standout performers since arriving in England.
His talent was evident from an early age, with comparisons being made in his
homeland to several of Brazil's modern stars - including Kaka and Ronaldinho - due to the
attacking midfielder's deft touch and creativity.
He began his career at one of Rio de Janeiro's biggest clubs, Vasco da Gama.
Alerted to his potential at 16 years old, Europe's heavyweight clubs battled for
his signature and it was Italian giants Inter who won the race to conclude a transfer
worth around Ђ4million in 2008.
Due to Italian rules, Coutinho was ineligible for his new club until his 18th
birthday so remained at Vasco to continue his education. In 2009, he helped Brazil's U17
side claim South American spoils, scoring in the final against Argentina.
Coutinho appeared for Vasco on 43 occasions in total, netting five goals, before
his transfer to Inter - then managed by former Reds boss Rafa Benitez - was completed in
the summer of 2010.
"He is a young player with lots of quality. He can be the future of the club
and we expect him to do very well for us," said Benitez when the Brazilian arrived at
the San Siro.
Capable of playing in any forward position, Coutinho was regularly used in a wide
role at Inter - making his debut in the UEFA Super Cup and racking up 20 games and a
single goal in 2010-11.
The Brazilian enjoyed further international success in 2011, featuring in all seven
matches and finding the target three times as the U20 side lifted the U20 World Cup in
Colombia.
Injuries would hamper the midfielder's progress into the Inter first team, with
just eight appearances the following season before the Italians loaned Coutinho to Spanish
outfit Espanyol for the second half of 2011-12.
There he thrived - under the stewardship of Mauricio Pochettino, the diminutive
attacker played consistently and struck five goals before returning to Inter with a
first-team spot in his sights.
During 2012-13, Coutinho was largely used in the Europa League by boss Andrea
Stramaccioni, striking twice as the Italians qualified for the knockout stages.
Then after weeks of speculation regarding his future, the attacker completed a move
to Anfield in January 2013 as Brendan Rodgers further honed his Liverpool forward options.
Coutinho was handed a first appearance for the club as a substitute during the home
defeat to West Brom on February 11, then found the target on his full Liverpool debut six
days later with a calm finish against Swansea.
The diminutive playmaker's sublime passing range and vision ensured he became an
instantaneous favourite among Kopites, who have regularly been stunned by the creativity
of the No.10.
In 2013-14, the Brazilian evolved into an all-action midfielder, equally
comfortable pressing hard to win possession, and his performances were a central tenet of
the Reds' run to a second-place finish.
While Liverpool endured a testing start to the 2014-15 campaign, Coutinho's
influence over the side grew, especially after Rodgers handed the playmaker a more free,
attacking role in a revamped 3-4-3 formation.
Then, in February 2015, Coutinho reaffirmed his commitment to the cause by signing
a new long-term contract at the club.
Now one of Europe's most coveted creative midfielders, Coutinho's sublime touch and
ingenuity have become integral to Liverpool's success, and have seen him stake an
impressive claim for a spot in the Brazil side.
He was in sparkling form for Liverpool in 2014-15, with his memorable strikes
against Manchester City and Southampton providing two of the campaign's highlights.
Coutinho also scooped a quartet of personal honours during the 2015 Players'
Awards, before then repeating the trick a year later thanks to his performances as a key
member of Jьrgen Klopp's side.
His influence continued to grow during Klopp's second season at the helm, and the
No.10 delighted all at the club by penning another new long-term deal in January 2017.
