Leeds United have already put a price on Raphinha, their star striker, an impossible amount for FC Barcelona at the moment, but the player's father remains optimistic. "There is hope", he affirms about the possibility of seeing him in Catalonia
Raphinha Wants to go out of the Leeds United in summer to play in the FC Barcelona, but the cost of the operation could be too high for the group blaugrana. In principle it spoke of 50 million euros, a figure that could go down to the half if the whites descended. However, now the ones of Elland Road ask 55 'kilos', five more than the initial price and 10 more than the current value of the forward in Transfermarkt.
Nevertheless, in spite of the complexity of the operation, Raphael Belloli, father of the Brazilian, considers that "andxisten possibilities, but these involve to three parts: the club interested, the current and the player", said the progenitor of the of Carry Cheerful. Besides, it added that "Raphinha is calm because has agreement and all the options depend on he. What he knows is what has gone out in the press, at all more", puntualizó Belloli.
The player of 25 years has agreement with the Leeds until 2024 and, after his good season in the Premier League, clubs like the Liverpool and the Manchester United will look for ficharle in summer. In the 2021-22, the '10' added 11 goals and 3 assistances in 36 parties (2.966 minutes). However, in spite of the interest of other teams, Raphinha will expect until last moment by the Barça. In this sense, the paper of Deco, his agent, plays a fundamental paper.
The ex midfield player culé forms part of the group of collaborators of the club for 'hunt' talents in Sudamérica and will try that his represented finish dressing the T-shirt blaugrana. Besides, so much the technical body like the managerial see him like an excellent relief for Ousmane Dembélé, the one who to these heights does not have at all signed with any club, but is almost a fact his exit of Catalonia.
Lewandowski Or Raphinha?
It is clear that the Barça will look for fichar a forward in summer. Or, maybe, two, as they allow it to him his economic possibilities. The priority is fichar a '9' and Robert Lewandowski is the first option. The Pole already has left clear in reiterated opportunities his wish to go out already of the Bayern Munich and arrive to the Barcelona, but still there are not formal offers. The possible sale of Frenkie of Jong and the injection of capital via loans and sponsorships is the most valid road to pay the operation, but given the delicate financial situation of the club, seems clear that if it arrives the Pole descarta to Raphinha.
The Barça can not fichar to anybody, for the moment, by his problems with the mass salarial and the financial limit. At most, the club will find the road in the weeks to come, from sales and traspasos, to open a gap for some signings, but think that the club goes to spend more than 100 million euros in two forwards is an authentic fallacy. Like this the things, if the directive attains destrabar his finances, irremediablemente it will be necessary to choose. Lewandowski Or Raphinha?
