Aston Villa want to terminate midfielder’s contract as loan spell endsAston Villa aims to terminate Philippe Coutinho’s contract, saving on wages. The 33-year-old Brazilian playmaker spent last year on loan at Vasco da Gama. With one year left on his Villa contract, a mutual agreement is sought. Coutinho’s initial bright start faded after joining permanently in 2022 under Steven Gerrard. Despite earlier hopes for a quick resolution, his future remains uncertain.
