According to reports, Barca have provided Arsenal with a "guarantee" that they will help the Gunners lock in coutinho's transfer to the Emirates Stadium, who has been chased by the Gunners for a long time.
Coutinho will be looking for a transfer when the winter window opens, and he wants more playing time to secure a fixture for Brazil for the World Cup.
The 29-year-old, who has played just 608 minutes (2 goals) this season, was close to a move to Arsenal the previous summer, but Koeman's arrival ended the transfer.
After the experience, Arsenal grew tired of the empty feeling of rejoicing, at least as the media rumors said.
Barca are trying to convince them that a similar situation will not happen again this time.
Due to his age, Coutinho does not fit arsenal's template for bringing in players, but after 6 months there will be multiple veterans who may leave the team.
The credibility of this rumor is still somewhat doubtful.
Coutinho is paid well and will turn 30 early next season.
Everton and Flamengo have also been reported to be interested in signing the player, but his salary is a big issue for the Brazilian team.
Former Arsenal academy goalscorer Luke Planger have scored twice in their last four games for Derby County.
After his contract with Arsenal expired, Planger joined Derby county last summer.
The goalscorer has excelled in Arsenal's Under-18 youth team, but has a hard time getting out of the way among the many young strikers in the club's youth team, so it makes sense to get development opportunities through transfers.
Pranger was a steady starter at derby County's U23, his first exposure to U23 football. The 19-year-old contributed five goals and one assist in the first 10 premier league reserve games.
But even better is the young striker who has moved into the Derby County first team.
Earlier last month, he made his senior debut off the bench against Bristol City. He then started against Blackpool and scored a goal. He started twice this week and scored against Stoke City.
Planger's two goals came from a one-goal win over his opponent. These are key goals that will make him more recognized by the fans.
After suffering penalties this season, Derby County need him to contribute more goals. Halfway through the fixture line, Derby County are 11 points away from safety, but a three-game winning streak has rekindled their hopes of relegation.
If Planger makes Derby County land successfully with a steady play, it won't be the first time Arsenal have helped this team this season.
The Gunners also allowed Derby county to defer the payment of Christian Berwick's transfer fee to help them with cash flow problems.
If relegation is successful, Derby County should write a thank-you note to Arsenal.
