Barcelona do not want to sell Philippe Coutinho this summer and have not been in contact with Paris Saint-Germain over a potential deal, according to the Brazilian's agent Kia Joorabchian.
Coutinho's struggles since arriving at Camp Nou have led to suggestions that Barca are prepared to sell the former Liverpool playmaker ahead of the 2019-20 campaign.
Indeed, PSG have been strongly linked with a move for the 27-year-old, while Manchester United have also been credited with an interest.
According to Joorabchian, though, Barca general manager Pep Segura has made it clear that the Spanish champions want to keep hold of the attacker.
"I spoke in the past few days with Pep Segura in Barcelona. He told me that the club did not want to sell Coutinho this summer - whatever the price. And we have had no contact with PSG for Coutinho," Joorabchian told RMC.
Coutinho has helped Brazil reach the final of this summer's Copa America, with the tournament hosts due to face either Chile or Peru in the final this weekend.
