Barcelona are set to make a fourth bid for Philippe Coutinho by the end of the week as they continue to try and wrestle the midfielder away from Liverpool this summer.
The Catalan giants have been chasing the 25-year-old creative midfielder in recent weeks, but Liverpool have continued to knock back big money offers for the Brazilian.
The Reds have already rejected three bids, the latest being a €125m offer last week and have maintained that Coutinho is not for sale at any price in the current window.
The player has slapped in a transfer request and has made it clear that he wants to join Barcelona, but Liverpool have so far remained resistant in their efforts to keep the midfielder on Merseyside.
And their resolve is set to undergo further tests this week as according to Brazilian outlet UOL Esporte, the Catalan giants are set to slap in a fourth bid for Coutinho.
