Philippe Coutinho returned to Brazil with Vasco da Gama and has regained form, playing regularly and recording 11 goals and four assists in 2025. The midfielder struggled after leaving Liverpool, failing to establish himself as a key player at Barcelona or Bayern Munich and experiencing a disappointing spell at Aston Villa. High wages made him an expensive underperformer for Villa, and his exit relieved the club of that burden. Now in the twilight of his career, Coutinho aims to enjoy his football in Brazil while hoping his revival can earn a place in the Brazilian national team ahead of the World Cup. Carlo Ancelotti is likely to announce his quote for the upcoming international friendlies next week.
