Brazilian international Raphinha may be on the move from FC Barcelona in the coming months, according to reports from Spain.
The former Stade Rennais star has been in exceptional form under new Barcelona manager Hansi Flick this season, establishing himself as a key figure in the team. As the club’s top scorer, Raphinha has even captained the side in the absence of Frenkie de Jong and Marc-André ter Stegen, highlighting Flick’s confidence in his leadership and professionalism.
His standout performances have drawn the attention of several major European clubs, with Arsenal reportedly showing strong interest. The Gunners, eager to strengthen their attacking options, have made Raphinha a priority target. Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta is said to be a big fan of the Brazilian and has urged the club’s leadership to secure his signing at any cost.
Reports suggest that Arsenal is willing to offer up to €75 million for Raphinha, but Barcelona, aware of his growing value, has set an asking price of at least €83 million. The next move is now in Arsenal’s hands, and it remains to be seen whether they will meet Barcelona’s demands.
This potential transfer could be one of the most high-profile moves of the upcoming window, with Raphinha poised to be a major addition for any club willing to meet his price tag.
