Philippe Coutinho looks to be heading to Liverpool after the Reds increased their offer to Inter’s liking.
According to Sport Mediaset, Liverpool have now offered €10M plus a number of bonuses which could see the figure rise higher, and Inter have accepted the bid.
This is despite the fact that the offer is some €2M less than that placed on the table by another English side, Southampton, who offered €12M for the Brazilian.
Coutinho though is keener to land at Anfield than St. Mary’s and has already agreed what personal terms would look like with the Reds.

Selling Coutinho to Liverpool will allow Inter to make a fresh move for Corinthians midfielder Paulinho, a player who is desperately wanted by the Nerazzurri.
Coutinho will hope for more chances to impress at Anfield than he was afforded at Inter, where first team action was at a premium.
It remains to be seen however if there are any late twists in the transfer saga involving the young midfielder.
