PHILIPPE COUTINHO’S agent has claimed the Premier League could be his natural home – but the coronavirus pandemic could pay an end to his hopes of a return to England. Speaking to Sky Sports News, Joorabchian said: "After the Champions League game he played in England we had a long chat about it. "The Premier League is something that he has always enjoyed playing in, and loved playing in, and would probably love to come back and play in. "The question is what are going to be the financial conditions of all the clubs, including Barcelona and all the Premier League clubs at the end of this pandemic?" Neither Arsenal or Spurs have the finances to go close to those terms while Chelsea may have the money but could find other cheaper options.
