Coutinho made no secret of he desire to seek a move away from Anfield this summer to join Barcelona.
Liverpool rejected three bids from the La Liga giants as they dug their heels in on not selling their star player.
And the Merseyside club stood firm by refusing to sell the player during the transfer window.
Recent reports have suggested Coutinho is frustrated at not being able to move to the Nou Camp and could refuse to play for Liverpool as a protest against the club.
But Brazil legend Ronaldinho insists the 25-year-old is not that sort of player and will produce his best for Liverpool once reinstated into the team.
“This season they will see him give everything for the club - that is the sort of player he is,” Ronaldinho told the Mirror.
"Also no player is going to refuse to play when it’s the World Cup at the end of the season.
“The Liverpool fans have nothing to worry about - I do not believe any of the stories about him refusing to play for the club. I know him that is not his way.”
But Ronaldinho fully expects Barcelona to renew their interest in Coutinho again.
He added: “He (Coutinho) made it clear that he wanted to join Barcelona this summer - he will be disappointed as it is a dream for players to want to play for Barcelona - but I am sure he will still get that chance.
“They made it clear how much they wanted him and I am sure that they will come back for him.”
