Henry advises Coutinho to 'follow the path of Luis Suarez'

The Frenchman feels that putting in one more stellar season at Anfield will benefit both the playmaker and his current club

Former Barcelona and Arsenal icon Thierry Henry has advised Philippe Coutinho to follow the same path taken by Luis Suarez, urging the Brazilian to remain at Liverpool for one more season.

Barca have been chasing Coutinho since Neymar departed for Paris Saint-Germain in a record-breaking €222 million move and have since had a handful of big-money bids rejected by the Reds.

The Catalan club have signed French wonderkid Ousmane Dembele in the interim but retain a keen interest in Coutinho, though Jurgen Klopp's side are still reluctant to sell their star playmaker.
