Coutinho, hopeful of a move to Barcelona, scored for Brazil

Paulinho got the other goal in a 2-0 win against Ecuador

Brazil star Philippe Coutinho is still involved in the transfer market on the final day. With the window shut in the Premier League, La Liga clubs are still able to make signings. 

Coutinho has an eye on the offices at Barcelona. He hopes the club's fourth bid for him wil be accepted by Liverpool before the window shuts in Spain later on Friday. 

Meanwhile, he's with the Brazil team for two World Cup qualification games -- although they have already secured their place at next summer's World Cup. 

On Thursday he played a key role for his country, coming off the bench to score the second goal in a win against Ecuador. It was his first official appearance of the season. 

Paulinho got the other goal but it was the celebration of his goal which Coutinho used on social media to send a message during what could be crucial hours relating to his career.
