Ex Barcelona midfielder, Philippe Coutinho has come out to react to reports that he could be joining Lionel Messi in the MLS. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, even if he is only thinking about the present moment in his football career, you never know about a potential link up with Messi in the future.
Coutinho added that he did not regret joining Barcelona when he did even if things didn’t go as imagined.
His words, “I only think about the moment. I want to be well, prepare well, play good games, enjoy football. We never know what will happen in the future. My name always appears in the newspapers where they speak in every way, good and bad. I try not to look at them and I’m just worried about doing my job well and enjoying it.
Do I regret joining Barça? No. At no time. Things didn’t go as I imagined, as people expected, as I expected because I am the first to demand more of myself on the field, I tell myself that I have to give more etc. I tried everything, I have always been very professional and I do not regret anything. It was always my dream to play for Barca. I enjoyed it, I was able to meet many people, and win titles and it will always be in the history of my life. What would I change from my time at Barca? Nothing. I wouldn’t change anything. Going back is impossible, but as I said I don’t regret anything. I always did my best in training, as I do here and as I did last year and as I will do next year. If things fit well, perfect and if not, patience.”
WOW.
