English Premier League Rumour Mill – Three weeks till cut off

Will teams have enough time to replace the key players lost in such short time or are they holding on to their prize possessions?

There has been a lot of news surrounding both, Diego Costa and Philippe Coutinho. The two are yet to feature for their respected clubs.

The Costa issue continues to take twist and turns. First the manager did not want the striker at the club, said the time for him to look elsewhere should be now.

The player expressed his heart set on a move to Atletico Madrid and only Atletico. But, this will be a tough transfer for him to complete.

Costa is now being told to report back for training and will be fined by the club for not doing so, claims the Telegraph. Other reports from Sky Sports presenter support these claims.

Other want away, is Philippe Coutinho who was only pictured leaving Melwood after not travelling with the rest of the team to Germany for their Champions League qualifier.

The player is said to be struggling with a back injury all while this request to Barcelona continues to be dealt with by the club.

The club’s store has also been pictured taking down all pictures with the little Brazilian featuring on it.

It is not in the best interest for the Reds to be selling their best player and would only work in favour of the Spanish powerhouse, who have recently lost in their away fixture to rivals, Real Madrid.

The Premier League is in full swing but teams have time to sort out last minute business. It would be interesting to see the end result of all these rumours.
