Jackpot in Saudi Arabia for a Barça flop?

FC Barcelona have been looking for offers for their players throughout the summer.

The latest player to receive a proposal is Brazilian winger Raphinha. According to Achraf Ben Ayad, FC Barcelona have received an offer from Saudi Arabia for the 26-year-old.

This report, like all others, should be taken with a pinch of salt until more details become available.

10 goals and 10 assists to his credit

Whether there is an offer or not, and whether Barcelona accept it or not, Raphinha is unlikely to be interested. He has stated several times that he wants to be at Barcelona next season.

Transferred for 58 million euros from English club Leeds United last summer, Raphinha had a difficult start at Camp Nou, losing his place in the starting XI.

But with Ousmane Dembele’s injury, he rose to prominence in the second half of the season, scoring 10 goals and providing 10 assists in 50 appearances.
