Chelsea favourites to land Philippe Coutinho ahead of Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool

Chelsea are the bookmaker's favourite to landing Philippe Coutinho this summer after they slashed their odds on him joining the Blues.

The 27-year-old Brazilian is being linked with a return to the Premier League this summer after a fairly unsuccessful time with Barcelona.

Coutinho has also been on loan with Bayern Munich this season and has been in and out of the side as they try to clinch another Bundesliga title.

However, Coutinho could return to England and according to Betfair, it is now must likely he will join the Blues on a potential loan deal.

Betfair Spokesperson, Sam Rosbottom said: "Since leaving Liverpool, Philippe Coutinho has struggled to hit the same heights abroad and there are a lot of strong reports linking him with a move back to the UK.

"The punters also fancy him to make the switch back, and in the past 24 hours have slashed odds on Chelsea to sign him from 6/1 to 5/6 in the past 24 hours.

"Tottenham are second favourites at 4/1 to sign the Brazilian, while a return to Anfield doesn’t look impossible at 6/1."
