The coach of Barcelona, Ernesto Valverde, after his team's victory against Levante (3-0) in La Liga, expressed confidence that Philippe Coutinho's adaptation to the Blaugrana team will be fast.

It has been a press conference that, beyond the match against Levante, has been marked by the signing of the Brazilian, who comes from Liverpool, for 160 million euros, between fixed and variable amounts.
Regarding Coutinho, Valverde highlighted his versatility: "He is a player who can bring us many things. He is good at scoring goals, providing assists, and also helps in the offensive and construction of the game. He can play as a winger and as a midfielder. He has a certain versatility."
