Barcelona Alleged To be Plotting Double Swoop For Countinho And Hazard After Neymar Exit

Barcelona confirmed earlier today that Neymar was on the verge of completing his world-record £198m move to PSG. And the La Liga giants are wasting no time in reinvesting that money in replacing the Brazil international.Reports claim Barcelona have earmarked a move for both Chelsea’s Hazard and Liverpool’s Coutinho. Coutinho has been linked with a move to the Catalan club all summer with Liverpool already reportedly rejecting two offers of £72m and £89m.But Barcelona will supposedly come again with another bid to test Liverpool’s resolve as they hope Coutinho can become Andres Iniesta’s long-term successor. That still leaves a huge gap left by Neymar on Barcelona’s left wing and they are now reportedly planning a bid of around £100m for Chelsea winger Hazard to take up the reigns alongside Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez.Photo Credit: Getty
