According to Romano, Philippe Coutinho is set to return to Vasco da Gama.
It’s understood that two weeks ago, Coutinho made a transfer request to Aston Villa. The player has already agreed on salary and contract terms with Vasco da Gama. In response, Aston Villa has given the green light for the move. To facilitate his return to Vasco da Gama, Coutinho has accepted a wage reduction, and the club will also support the development of the Philippe Coutinho Academy.
Coutinho started his career at Vasco da Gama and was on loan at Al-Duhail last season, scoring 7 goals and providing 4 assists in 22 appearances for the team.
