Follow Hansi Flick's revolution at FC Barcelona. The Blaugrana continue working on the 'exit operation' and there is a player for whom they aspire to get a lot of money. Newcastle wants him, but at the moment they have not offered the money that the culés want to pay
At Barça they are still keeping their fingers crossed for a sale to be confirmed soon, something that is absolutely necessary at the moment. The departure of players is paralysed and the lack of movement is worrying for the Barça board. The start of La Liga is getting closer and closer and no signings have yet been finalised, and there may also be problems when it comes to registering all the pieces.
The club president, Joan Laporta, already has in his hands the list of players that Hansi Flick does not consider essential. Therefore, they will get to work to allow their transfers, as long as an adequate offer arrives. Among those mentioned are Ferran Torres, Oriol Romeu, Íñigo Martínez and the departure of Raphinha is not ruled out either. This news is not surprising, because despite the fact that he had a good level last season, the German coach is looking favourably on the transfer of the Brazilian international, as it would leave space in the dressing room, free up an important salary and obtain a lot of money in return.
With the amount that the winger would leave in the coffers, the Blaugrana could sign Dani Olmo or Nico Williams immediately, who have become the top priority on Deco's transfer agenda at the moment. The problem right now is that offers have only come from the Saudi Pro League and the player is not considering leaving Europe yet.
Barcelona awaiting offers for Raphinha
In Barcelona they are still waiting for a convincing proposal from a European team, which would reach the 60 million they had to pay for him a couple of years ago. The team that is most insistent on the former Leeds player is Newcastle United. The owner of the English club, Mohammed Bin Salmán, cannot forget about Raphinha and has reactivated talks with Laporta, presenting a higher proposal than the last time. Specifically, he has offered 45 million euros, although it is still far from what Barça wants, so they have not yet reached an agreement. The Brazilian has not yet commented, so his continuity in Barcelona remains a mystery.
