Barcelona offer Chelsea the chance to sign Philippe Coutinho during this summer's transfer window, according to a report.

Barcelona have reportedly offered Chelsea the chance to sign Philippe Coutinho.

The Brazil international has spent the 2019-20 campaign on loan with Bayern Munich, scoring nine times and contributing eight assists in 32 appearances for the Bundesliga outfit.

The German champions are unlikely to take up the option to sign the attacker on a permanent deal, though, meaning that the 27-year-old is expected to return to Camp Nou this summer.

Barca are thought to be keen to sell Coutinho in order to raise the funds required to move for Paris Saint-Germain's Neymar and Inter Milan's Lautaro Martinez.

Chelsea have been strongly linked with the South American, and according to Sky Sports News, the Blues are one of the clubs to have been offered the chance to sign him.

Quique Setien recently suggested that he wanted to keep the playmaker this summer, but the Barca boss could ultimately be overruled by the club.

Manchester United, Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur have also been credited with an interest.
