The Mirror says they want to sign Coutinho by the end of the week.
The Spanish giants are sending a three-man delegation to London to try to negotiate a £100million move to the Nou Camp.
Liverpool continue to insist the player is not for sale and that he remains committed to the Kop cause.

But Nou Camp trio Oscar Grau, Raul Sanllehi and Javier Bordas will be sent to the UK under orders to secure Coutinho's signature in time for him to play in Spain's Super Cup final on Sunday against arch rivals Real Madrid.
Barca, awash with cash following the £199m sale of Neymar to Paris Saint-Germain, are determined to strike a deal.
