ICYMI: Former Bayern Munich star Philippe Coutinho inks deal with Santos FC

RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL - DECEMBER 14: Former football icon Philippe Coutinho, once a star at Bayern Munich, Liverpool, and FC Barcelona, has signed with Santos FC. This move reunites him with Neymar, their longtime Brazil teammate, after years of playing together for the national team. At 34 years old, Coutinho had been without a club since leaving Vasco da Gama in February due to a challenging period that impacted his mental health.
