Philippe Coutinho has returned to Liverpool to say goodbye to his former team-mates following his £146m move to Barcelona.

Coutinho became the second most expensive player in history when he sealed his move to the Catalan club earlier this month.

The 26-year-old signed a five-and-a-half-year contract with Barcelona and made his full debut for the club in the 2-1 win over Alaves on Sunday.

Coutinho then returned to Liverpool on Monday to meet with his former team-mates Melwood and wish them a proper goodbye.

Reds midfielder Adam Lallana took to Instagram to post a picture of himself alongside the Brazil international, with the caption: "Back to say his farewells... a class act this little genius."
