On March 14th, Sportitalia journalist Gianluigi Longari reported that Manchester United are one of the clubs drawn into the mix for Raphinha.
Since this report emerged, there have been numerous claims in the Catalan press about Barcelona’s interest in the winger.
Tuesday’s edition of Mundo Deportivo details the figure needed to sign the 25-year-old in the next window.
Leeds United are 16th in the table with 29 points from 30 matches and are seven points ahead of 18th placed Watford, who have a game in hand.
With Manchester United and PSG also in the race for Raphinha, the Whites position in the negotiation with Barca will be different.
If Leeds were to avoid dropping to the Championship, Mundo then states they ‘will not sell [the South American] for less than €50m’.
