Liverpool have rejected a third bid from Barcelona for Philippe Coutinho, reports have said.
The bid was instantly rejected by Liverpool, who remain on their stance that Coutinho will not be leaving Anfield this summer.
The latest offer was worth £118 million (€129m) including £36.5 worth of add-ons, according to The Times. That follows two previous rejected bids from the Catalan side worth £72m and £90m.
Sources close to Liverpool say it does not matter what Barca offer for Coutinho, as they will not sell the player at any price.
Coutinho signed a five-year contract at Anfield in January, which made him the club’s highest-paid player, with Liverpool ensuring no release clause was inserted as part of the new deal.
