Dani Alves better not lend his phone to any Liverpool fans because it's likely that it would be promptly be hurled into the nearest body of water.

Reds supporters won't want any contact between Alves and their star midfielder Philippe Coutinho as the Brazilian right back is urging his fellow countryman to consider a move away from Anfield. Bolton Wanderers v Liverpool - FA Cup Fourth Round Replay Keeping hold of Coutinho will be one of Jurgen Klopp's primary pieces of business this summer as the club's Player of the Year has drawn some interested glances from Ligue 1 powerhouse Paris Saint-Germain, with reports that the French side have already reached out to Coutinho's representatives. But it's a different team that Alves is recommending for the playmaker as he thinks Coutinho has what it takes to make it for Barcelona, the side at which Alves developed into one of the greatest full backs of all time. FC Barcelona v SD Eibar - La Liga "Football is about living the moment," Alves told Yahoo Esportes. "Liverpool have history but you should consider playing for top UCL sides. He has the quality to play for Barcelona." Don't be surprised if you read a headline this summer exclaiming 'Dani Alves abducted by anxious Liverpool fans, will be released in September.' Snapchat
