With a valid agreement until 2024, the ones of Yorkshire would be by the work to leave him go as long as it arrive to his hands the suitable offer. The Barça had that the English descended to the second category so that the clause in his agreement went in in action, pricing his value in 25 million euros. However, the Brazilian was protagonist in the last day of League and achieved that his team continued a year more in the Premier.

Now, the journalist Fabrizio Romano has desvelado that the pretences of the Leeds have 'shot' and that will not put any ease. "The Leeds has not changed his conditions for the traspaso of Raphinha.

Other options

With the situation of Raphinha aground, the sportive direction would be considering other alternatives to reinforce his forward. The renewal of Ousmane Dembélé still is on the table, but his economic pretences are supported by him a foot and half out of the Camp Nou. Sadio Mané Also projects like a variant of guarantees, more still after it communicated his wish of 'change of airs' in this same window of traspasos. Finally, Serge Gnabry is another player that would be in the ramp of exit, although the relation with the Bayern Munich already is the sufficiently taut by the signing of Robert Lewandowski. They come days complicated for the blaugrana.
