Liverpool midfielder Philippe Coutinho has told family members that he is willing to hold back from moving to Barcelona this summer.
Coutinho tops Barca's shopping list, with the Catalans willing to go as high as €90 million for the midfielder.
However, Sport says Coutinho, while open to eventually moving to Barca, has immediate concerns over his playing chances if he was to join this summer.
The Brazil international has told relatives he can't see himself being selected for Barca's key games while Andres Iniesta remains at the club. The Barca captain plays in Coutinho's favoured position and the Liverpool ace just can't see himself dislodging the Spain international.
Interestingly, there is also a feeling inside Barca that waiting may be the right decision as buying a player for €90 million, while refusing to play him in his favoured positions, doesn't make sense.
