Philippe Coutinho edging closer to January move to Arsenal

The curtain is about to fall on Philippe Coutinho's time at Barcelona - the midfielder is strongly being linked with a move to Arsenal in January, as per Diario Sport.

Coutinho has fallen out of favour with Xavi and has only started one league game since the new boss arrived, sitting out the last 2.

The Brazilian has registered 2 goals this season, in his first 16 matches.

However, a clear dip in form for Barca's biggest earner means the Blaugrana are actively looking for a way to get him off their hands.
