NEYMAR has reportedly asked Barcelona to sign Liverpool star Philippe Coutinho this summer.
By JACK OTWAY
Coutinho and Neymar are both team-mates with the Brazil international team.
The Liverpool playmaker has regularly been linked with a move to the Nou Camp amid uncertainty over Andres Iniesta's future.
And though he signed a new contract with the Reds back in January, a move to Barcelona could still be in the offing.
Spanish outlet Diario Gol claim that Barcelona chiefs are considering a summer bid for the Liverpool ace at the end of the season.
Neymar's recommendation has been well received but the Catalan club are currently only focused on this season.
However, the Brazil international's growing influence reportedly does not sit well with Lionel Messi.
Messi is Barcelona's main man and the club's all-time leading scorer with 492 goals from 570 games.
But it is said that he is opposed to Coutinho's signing as it would grant Neymar more power at the Nou Camp.
And with the Argentina international's contract expiring next summer, Barcelona must do all they can to keep their star man at the club.
