Brazilian midfielder Philippe Coutinho has become the world's second-most expensive footballer, following his transfer from Liverpool to Barcelona for Â£142 million (â¹1,220 crore). The fee is only eclipsed by the â¹1,680 crore PSG paid Barcelona for Neymar in August last year. Coutinho was signed for only Â£8.5 million by Liverpool from Inter Milan five years ago.
