Philippe Coutinho was rated at 88 in FIFA 19, and there is no way he will be able to retain the same in FIFA 20. The Brazilian has been out of form and has been Barcelona's worst player on the pitch a lot of times last season. His rating is likely to drop to 85.

The former Liverpool player has not been able to replicate his Premier League form in LaLiga, and the Catalan side's fans want him sold as soon as possible. PSG are reportedly the only club interested in signing him and Barcelona are trying to offer him in a deal for Neymar.
Manchester United, Chelsea and Liverpool were also linked with him, but nothing has materialized. Chelsea have accepted a transfer ban, and they can't sign players this summer or in January. United are not keen anymore as the agent has ruled out a move to Old Trafford. As for the Reds, the Brazilian will be a marquee signing, but a benchwarmer as the first team looks set.
