There is no doubt that Mohamed Salah is one of the best players to have arrived at Liverpool in recent times, as the Egyptian attacker has not only established himself as one of the best players at the club, but also in the whole world and many already consider him an Anfield legend, as he has been one of the key pieces in Jürgen Klopp's project that has returned our Liverpool to the football elite.

 

However, initially Salah was not going to be the cornerstone of Klopp's project, because when the German tactician arrived at the club in 2015, the club had in its squad great players with enormous potential that made all the fans dream that our club could have among its ranks the next great star of world football.

We are talking about Philippe Coutinho, the Brazilian midfielder who dazzled the whole world with his enormous talent and great skill. Together with Luis Suarez, Raheem Sterling and Daniel Sturridge he formed one of the most dangerous attacks in Europe, and set Anfield dreaming of a revival of epic proportions. However, Coutinho failed to repay the affection the fans gave him during his time at Anfield.

In 2018, Coutinho decided to betray Liverpool and, despite Klopp's insistence that he should not leave, he decided to leave the club and head for FC Barcelona, believing that there he would conquer the titles he had been denied with the Reds. However, his regret came quickly, because in the same season in which he left, our Liverpool won the Champions League, while he suffered injuries and lowered his level of play and was never able to consolidate in Spanish football.

 

Coutinho's discouraging present

After being considered one of the best players in the world with the potential to become Liverpool's top player, Coutinho was valued at 150 million euros. However, since leaving Anfield he has only decreased in price and now, playing for Aston Villa, he is valued at only 10 million euros. In fact, despite having a contract with Aston Villa, it is said that they are looking for a way out, the problem is that there are no offers or interest from another team in him.
