A flop from Barça to Saudi Arabia?
Raphinha could well pack his bags for the English championship.

FC Barcelona are aware that in order to complete the transfers of Nico Williams and Dani Olmo they will have to make some sacrifices. Among the players most likely to leave the club, Raphinha is at the top of the list.

The Blaugrana management has placed the Brazilian striker on the transfer list, and is ready to sell him for a fee of 50 million euros. And according to The MirrorRaphinha could well return to the Premier League.

Raphinha has her destiny in her own hands

Indeed, the British tabloid specifies this Saturday that Arsenal would be very interested in recruiting the Auriverde right winger. The Gunners would even be willing to pay the sum requested by Barça to repatriate the former Leeds player.

The question remains whether Raphinha is open to a return to England, especially since he has repeatedly expressed his desire to establish himself at Barcelona. Under contract with the Culés until June 2027, Raphinha joined the Catalan club in the summer of 2022 for a fee of €58 million.
