Coutinho, who will wear the number 23 shirt, returns to the Premier League after five years with Liverpool, where he spent five years between 2013 and 2018.

The Brazil international is reunited with former Reds team-mate Steven Gerrard, who replaced Dean Smith as manager at Villa Park in November.

Having endured an injury-hit spell with Barca, Coutinho could make his debut in this weekend’s Premier League showdown with Manchester United.
