#3 Leicester City

Leicester City is yet another Premier League side who are interested in signing Philippe Coutinho. The Brazilian is clearly in good demand and the English teams value his time with Liverpool, and who else would know his value more than Brendan Rogers.

The former Reds manager worked with Philippe Coutinho before, and almost won the 2013-14 title as well. Coutinho was an integral part of the team as well, he did not get a lot of assists or goals, however, he played in over 30 games in the league and almost ended Liverpool’s PL drought. Rogers will know exactly how to deploy the player, and with a finisher like Jamie Vardy upfront, Coutinho could end up getting a lot of assists.

Rogers has turned Leicester into a real top team in England, and he could use a few big stars who would cause instant impact upon the team. It would be great to see the two working together again. Reports have suggested that the manager is hoping to reunite with the Brazilian however, no official bids have been made yet.
