Over the last six months he did so well that he has been included in a UEFA.com ‘breakout XI’ of the Liga season.
Coutinho has already returned to Inter and scored a brace in yesterday’s 4-2 friendly win over the Indonesian team.
Coach Andrea Stramaccioni has stated he’ll be focusing more on the player next season.
