Juventus have ruled out the possibility of signing the Brazilian

Paris Saint-Germain are leading the race to sign Barcelona's Philippe Coutinho, with Juventus having dropped the idea of signing the Brazilian. 

According to 'Calciomercato', Coutinho, who is currently taking part in the Copa America with Brazil, is being followed by various clubs with his desire to leave Barça well known. 

Juve have reportedly ruled out a move for the playmaker, while the offer from Manchester United is a non-starter as the player doesn't want to betray ex-club Liverpool, who, along with Chelsea, have also been linked with him. 

Liverpool coach Jurgen Klopp would not be against bringing back Coutinho, who played his best football at Anfield before leaving for Barça. 

The player himself has left his future open, saying a few days ago that he didn't know what the future holds for him next season. 

However, PSG are currently the best placed to sign him. He could play a key role in Neymar's desire to leave the French champions and return to Barcelona. The Ligue 1 side could ask for Coutinho to be included in any potential deal. 

Barça are still working on their squad for next season and, at the moment, are keen on bringing in both Neymar and Antoine Griezmann.
