One possible destination would be Paris Saint-Germain but it is claimed Barcelona would only be interested in using him as part of a move for Neymar.

Following Antoine Griezmann's arrival from Atletico Madrid earlier this summer it remains to be seen if Barcelona have the financial means to bring Neymar back to Spain. It has been reported PSG have lowered their asking price to £110m for Neymar.

Coutinho is expected to be part of the official presentation of the team at the Joan Gamper Trophy against Arsenal on Sunday.

He will then head off to the United States on tour before the La Liga seasons gets underway.
However, according to Mundo Deportivo, nobody has launched a concrete move for the £110million-rated star and he therefore looks likely to stay put in Spain.

Manchester United had been linked with a move for Coutinho with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer looking to add flair to his midfield while Premier League rivals Liverpool were said to be interested in a reunion with the man who moved to Anfield in 2013.

It is reported Barcelona have had not one single offer for Coutinho this summer and, with the English transfer marketing closing on August 8, time is running out.

Philippe Coutinho's future at Barcelona appears to be safe after the Spanish giants failed to receive a single bid for the Brazilian.

Coutinho has been linked with a move away from the Nou Camp all summer after struggling for consistent form since his mega-money move from Liverpool in January 2018.

The playmaker has been mentioned as one of those who may depart in order to free up funds for the possible arrival of Neymar.

According to InfoMigrants, Nigerian women are at growing risk from traffickers in Germany who exploit and engage them in prostitution. Read the full report below by InfoMigrants. The new prostitute protection law in Germany was meant to identify victims of human trafficking – most of them migrant women. More than 18 months after the law came into effect, thousands continue to be targeted for exploitation, and the risk for Nigerian women seems to be increasing. There are campervans parked by the roadside. Some have hearts painted on them, one says “girls, girls” in red letters. It’s an easy matter for someone to stop for a quick transaction in one of these Love-Mobiles – sex with one of the “girls” in exchange for the going rate. Prostitution is mainly legal in Germany, as are these mobile brothels. But many of the women in the business – including those working from the Love-Mobiles – are victims of illegal human trafficking. Most of the women are from Eastern Europe or Nige

FULL TEXT: A sacrifice for our new political order – Ezekwesili

“When the ACPN leadership approached me in a series of visits to appeal that I run for office on their platform, the party appeared to be a good fit. It was founded by some disgruntled PDP members some years ago, but when its prime founder decided to return to the PDP, a core of its membership refused to move back with him. I was told that they stayed back because of their opposition to the ways of the PDP. Considering my vocal disapproval of the PDP and the APC, I admired the ACPN’s decision to stand firm and refusal to be co-opted.” It has been an interesting one week since I made the tough but necessary decision to suspend my campaign for the presidency. I have been truly overwhelmed by the reactions to my announcement from Nigerians. Even in airports outside the country as I travelled last week, Nigerians walked up to me with questions, concerns, encouragement, and motivation. I also saw disappointment by some who had poured their hearts and hopes into actualising our mission
