Liverpool may end up losing star playmaker Philippe Coutinho this summer to Barcelona if reports in the media are anything to go by.
Earlier in the day, we covered a report (via the Sun) claiming that the Samba star is on the verge of leaving the Reds, who are eyeing Lanizini to replace him.
Coutinho is a top quality player and if Liverpool are going to sell him then they must replace him with another top star. Unfortunately, Lanzini is by no means a proven quality star and the Anfield club must forget about signing him.
In my opinion, Klopp should use his sources at Dortmund and must agree the signing of 20-year-old Ousmane Dembele to replace the 25-year-old playmaker.

The French international has already proved that he is a top class talent and Liverpool have to splash the cash to secure his signing.
Coutinho directly contributed in 23 goals (36 games) for the Merseysiders last season. On the other hand, Dembele directly contributed in 31 goals (49 games) for the Bundesliga side.
Ousmane can play anywhere in the attacking third and unlike Coutinho, he can brilliantly maneuver and strike the ball hard with both feet. Dembele is renowned for his quick feet, dribbling and he is much much faster than Coutinho.
The Reds rate Coutinho around €150million (Sport) and will probably not give Barca a lot of discount now that they have sold Neymar for €222million. So, Liverpool should be able to meet the €90million (Mundo Deportivo) asking price to sign Dembele.
In your opinion, should Klopp sign Dembele to replace Coutinho?
