PHILIPPE COUTINHO has told Jurgen Klopp he will never play for Liverpool again, according to reports.
The Brazil ace has taken matters into his own hands as he tries to force through a dream move to Barcelona.
The Catalan giants had a third offer of £114million rejected for Coutinho on Friday as they continue to find Neymar's replacement.
Liverpool instantly rejected the offer and have kept up their stance that the player is not for sale at any costs.
And according to the Times, a frustrated Coutinho has told the German manager that he won't pull on the Liverpool shirt ever again.
The 25-year-old submitted a transfer request last Friday after Barca stepped up their chase to lure Coutinho to the Nou Camp.
Coutinho featured for Klopp's side in pre-season but the club have cited a back injury after he missed the Reds' Premier League opener.
He also sat out of the Champions League qualifying win over Hoffenheim and will miss the Crystal Palace match this weekend.

He is likely to miss the return leg against Hoffenheim meaning there will be just one more match, against Arsenal, before the window slams shut.
Coutinho only penned a new long-term deal in January but it didn't have a release clause.
It is believed that Barcelona's offer included further financial incentives if Coutinho won the Ballon d'Or.
