Chelsea have been set an asking price of £130million by Barcelona should they pursue a move for midfielder Philippe Coutinho this summer.
Manchester United are also said to be interested in the former Liverpool man and look the more likely of the two to land the Brazilian given Chelsea’s two-window transfer ban.
Barca have responded to the interest from the Premier League duo by putting an asking price of £130million on the out of favour Coutinho, the Metro report, as they look to recoup the majority of the reported £140million they spent on the 26-year-old in January 2018.
Coutinho is currently away on international duty with Brazil, who are favourites to lift the Copa America this summer, meaning a move for the midfielder would potentially have to wait until the conclusion of the tournament.
The Blues reportedly see Coutinho as a replacement for Eden Hazard, who looks set to join Real Madrid in the coming days, while Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is looking to strengthen his attacking options by signings the midfielder.
