Raphinha’s future at Barcelona has been under question since not long after he joined the Catalan club. The media closest to the Blaugrana have repeatedly reported that he could be quickly sold, seen as someone who could bring money in.
There’s also been concerns with the Brazilian’s attitude and reaction to being brought off the pitch. Raphinha went to the Camp Nou to start matches and be a protagonist and when he isn’t that clearly causes frustration.
According to Sport, Arsenal’s Edu Gaspar is making ‘constant calls’ to the player’s camp in an attempt to build a summer deal.
Barcelona would be prepared to sell because they need the money, and they need even more financial leeway with the potential return of Lionel Messi.
That presents the opportunity for Arsenal and others.
