Bayern Munich is considering extending the loan deal of Philippe Coutinho according to Sport.

The Barca loanee is nursing an injury after an obstruction from his surgery undertaken on his right ankle, which puts him in a pole position to miss a month of Bundesliga action.

The Brazilian is reported to have started training on his own as to recover and possibly prove his worth for another season. 

England was the next setting for the 27-year old ahead of a move, with Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspurs all chasing for his signature to feature for them. Newcastle later emerged as strong favorite to win the signature of the 'little magician' yet all seems to have ended after Bayern's loan extension.

Manchester United and a few English clubs persuaded Coutinho to take a u-turn before his loan move to Germany but with the respect he has for Liverpool and the name he made during his time with the European Champions, he saw it, misfit, to ply his trade in the Premier League against his former side.

It is likely that he has made a decision to stay due to his affiliation with Klopp and does not want to defy the love.
