Champions League Is A Goal, Says Coutinho Ahead Of Bayern Match

Champions League Is A Goal, Says Coutinho Ahead Of Bayern Match.

Bayern Munich’s Brazilian midfielder Philippe Coutinho attends a training session on the eve of the UEFA Champions League Group B football match between FC Bayern Munich and Red Star Belgrade in Munich, southern Germany, on September 17, 2019. Christof STACHE / AFPAs Bayern Munich launch their Champions League campaign against Red Star Belgrade on Wednesday night, Bavarian hopes of reclaiming European club football’s top prize rest to a large extent on the shoulders of Philippe Coutinho.

The departure of veteran stars such as Franck Ribery and Arjen Robben seemed to confirm the end of an era, but Coutinho’s arrival on loan from Barcelona has prompted fresh hope that Bayern can be restored as one of the continent’s most feared sides. Earlier this month, his Brazil team-mate and Manchester City goalkeeper Ederson told German newspaper Bild that Coutinho’s arrival put Bayern among the title favourites this season.

His price tag is also a potential burden. Though Bayern paid a loan fee of just 8.5 million euros to secure his services, German media estimate Coutinho’s wages at around 13 million euros a year after tax, which would make him the highest-paid player in the Bayern dressing room. “I have noticed in my first few games for Bayern that football here is very intense like it is in England. Much more so than in Spain and Brazil. That is good for me,” he said.
