The Brazilian became the third highest paid star at the Camp Nou after putting pen to paper on a contract that will see him receive £240 000 (R4 million) a week, as reported by Sport.
Only Luis Suarez with £290 000 (R4.9 million) and Lionel Messi, who reportedly signed a new £500 000 (R8.4 million) deal in December, earn more than the 25-year-old, according to Total Sportek.
Coutinho replaced Ousmane Dembele as the Blaugrana's new record signing, and the former Borussia Dortmund winger sits in fourth place in the club's salary ranking, pocketing £220 000 (R3.7 million) weekly.
Sergio Busquets completes the top five with his £180 000 (R3 million) wage, followed by Gerard Pique and Andres Iniesta, who both reportedly earn £165 000 (R2.8 million) a week.
Ivan Rakitic, Paulinho and Jordi Alba also receive at least £100 000 (R1.7 million) a week, which means Barcelona need to trim their wage bill and sell a few players this month.
