Steven Gerrard loves Barcelona midfielder Coutinho whom he has on loan from the Catalans

Steven Gerrard loves Philippe Coutinho. The Brazilian is readapting quickly to the Premier League and has scored five goals and provided three assists. Aston Villa’s intentions of executing the deal are increasing.

A signing from Brighton could help Barcelona finally sell Coutinho. Football Insider say that Graham Potter’s side would like to sign Danny Ings from Aston Villa.

Gerrard’s team signed Ings from Saints for 35m euros but might now look to sell as he has not established himself as a key player.
